Peter's 5-year-old brother Fudge develops an obsession with money, wanting as much of it as possible and demanding that his parents buy him things. Meanwhile, Dad runs into his long-lost cousin Howie and his overbearing family during a trip to Washington D.C. Peter's best friend Jimmy moves to SoHo with his dad. And Uncle Feather the pet myna bird has stopped talking.

A very fun read for readers beginning to appreciate longer stories. Double fudge is a quirky story about two families and their differences. ( )

This is a fun book about a family with very different children. Fudge is the middle and precocious child that is always getting in to trouble. He has to learn that "the best things in life are free" the hard way.

This would be a great read aloud book for students to help them with prediction and visualization. It mentions several historic landmarks during their trip to the city which would be fun to further explore.

Fudge's obsession with money could launch into a study of various forms of money in different countries as well as math skills and budgeting. It would be a fun book to read while teaching students money denominations. ( )
