Posted by jcarlson in : Friendship Fiction, Realistic Fiction , trackback

Do you try to blend in with the kids that think they are cool?  If you do, then read this book and you’ll probably change your mind!  In this story, a girl named Jill makes fun of a girl named Linda along with the girls that think they are popular (even though they’re not) and call her Blubber, like a whale.  On Halloween, Jill, her friend, and the popular girls play tricks on the people in their neighborhood.  Will they get caught?  Will Jill forget about the popular girls and be friends with Linda?  Read to find out!

I have this book and i love it because it teaches kids to never make fun of other kids just because they are smart or fat.
