Review Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing / Rebound by Sagebrush:Two is a crowd when Peter and his four-year-old brother, Fudge, are in the same room. Grown-ups think Fudge is absolutely adorable, but Peter and his pet turtle, Dribble, know the truth. Fudge is actually a tiny terror in disguise, causing mischief everywhere he goes. Passed on from babysitters to their young charges, from big sisters to little brothers, and from parents to children, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and its cousins (Superfudge, Fudge-a-mania, and Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great) have entertained children since they first appeared in the early 1970s. The books follow Peter Hatcher, his little brother Fudgie, baby sister Tootsie, their neighbor Sheila Tubman, various pets, and minor characters through New York City and on treks to suburbs and camps. Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is the first of these entertaining yarns. Peter, because he's the oldest, must deal with Fudgie's disgusting cuteness, his constant meddling with Peter's stuff, and other grave offenses, one of which is almost too much to bear. All these incidents are presented with the unfailing ear and big-hearted humor of the masterful Judy Blume. Though some of her books for older kids have aroused controversy, the Hatcher brothers and their adventures remain above the fray, where they belong. (Peter's in fourth grade, so the book is suitable for kids ages 8 and older. [+]).

Review The First Sandcastle / Writers Club Press:A most eloquent masterpiece! A story true to life and touching to the soul. Have you ever had sandcastle dreams…tideless dreams? Marlo Clemente is a young remarkable artist—a prodigy you can say. At age six, he can sketch freehand portraits and landscape settings—though neither his mother nor father ever acknowledge his extraordinary talent. Caught between his parent’s constant tribulations at home, Marlo matures only to doubt whether his "sandcastle dreams" will ever live beyond fairy tale legend. Desiree Castillo, with dazzling green eyes and clumsy lisp, has big dreams of her own. She even tells of a story of the first sandcastle ever—one which, legend has it, was built long ago near the Yucatan Peninsula. Faced with a strong fascination towards Desiree and his dreams of castles that never fall, Marlo battles his most passionate fears of countless tides, lonely moons, and wishful stars.
