And that’s what I’ve come to love most about books! Ultimately, these stories were a great escape. I wanted that life, even if it included a pain-in-the-butt brother named Fudge. This series was like one great movie in my head, playing on repeat for months. Secretly, I rejoiced that Peter had no feelings for Sheila Tubman and may have wished for teen librarian, Isobel-AKA Peter’s crush in Fudge-A-Mania-to stumble through poison ivy and get off the pages of my book so my friend Peter and I could hang out some more. I wanted to live in New York City, play in Central Park, have a dog named Turtle. Who knew books could be so funny? So real? I felt Peter’s triumphs and cried when he lost Dribble. When she finished that book, and I learned it was the first in a series, I checked out every single one of them, locked myself in my bedroom for days, and cracked-up silly with every scene.
