McDonald, Megan. Judy Moody Gets Famous!. New York: Candlewick Press, 2001.
Illustrator Peter Reynolds
In this sequel to Judy Moody, McDonald does a fantastic job maintaining the humor in Moody’s quest to be famous. This Judy Moody book portrays Judy in a jealous mood as she continues to witness others find their fame moment as she has nothing. Moving from one crazy idea to another, like having George Washington’s cherry pit, she will do her best to find away to get her “famous” moment. In the midst of trying hard, she manages to find her fame just by helping others. Children will enjoy this chapter book and come out with a good feeling. Peter Reynolds has black and white drawings that are simple but descriptive, and it gives just enough to get a good image in your head. The drawings scattered throughout are both small and large. Also, the book starts off with a Who’s Who at the beginning that gives a picture and description of each character. The continuation of this series is one that all will love and laugh at.
