Book Review: BLUBBER is a PHAT book to read!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Judy Blume is the author of Blubber. It takes place in Mrs. Minish's classroom in 5th grade. It begins in Mrs. Minish's class while they were doing their reports. This one student, Linda Fischer, did a report on whales. She mentioned that whales have a thick layer of blubber that keep them warm and being that she was kinda of chubby all the kids called her Blubber from then on. Jill, protagonist, Caroline, and Wendy, antagonist always made fun of her and did mean things to her. In the bathroom they made her take off most of her cloths and another time they made her eat chocolate covered ants. The teacher was out of the room most of the time, so they were able to play around a lot. Well it turns out that Wendy using Linda and acts like her friend just to get Jill mad just because of some incident that happened at Halloween. Tracy and Jill stayed best friends. Caroline and Donna were still friends and Wendy and Linda became friends. I thought this book was good over all because is showed what really goes on in school when the teacher isn't around and that you can't always trust your friends. I would recommend this book to 5th graders because it is easy reading and tells you about things that 5th graders like to do to other classmates.

Book Review: Bad book
Summary: 1 Stars

This book is not worth reading. It is about some kids who make fun of a girl because she is fat.The main characters are two girls. They make fun of a girl, Linda who their class nicknamed blubber. Then one day the rest of the class likes blubber and they don't like one of the main characters anymore. This happens for no reason at all.This book deserves 0 stars.

Book Review: Blubber
Summary: 5 Stars

Blubber is a book about a girl who is always being called blubber because of her weight. And a girl who tells the story in her point of veiw. The girl makes fun off her too. During the story she relizes what she is doing. The message of the book is what goes around comes around.

Very good book. I liked it because of the way the girls act in the school. They cus sometimes just like kids do today. That's why it's so belevilbe. Judy blume makes this story come to life with characters from school. This book will leave you smiling.
I was suprised how interesting the book was. I could not put it down.I think that you sould read this book because it will tell you about bulling at schools and what it sometimes is like when it happens.

People(boys and girls) who go through bullying might find this book useful for them .Reding ability must be at average for ages
12-16


Book Review: Blubber
Summary: 4 Stars

I just finished reading Blubber and I thought it was a good book.This book is about a girl named Linda who's being called Blubber after a animal report. The name gose all over the class room and later a girl named Jill is being picked on for standing up for herself. I would recomend this book beacause it shows a lesson that you shouln't call people names.

Book Review: Blubber
Summary: 4 Stars

I am a student at West Virginia State College taking a Children's Literature course. This is a banned book in most schools and although there were a few cuss words and the children making fun of oneanother, i believe this is a good book for the age recommended. It will teach children that it is not okay to make fun of someone and you should treat others how you would like to be treated, because it will come back on you. I enjoyed reading Blubber, by Judy Blume. I could not put this book down. I did however want more toward the ending and this book could have ended differently with Jill getting what she deserved. Overall its a must read!
