#HolidayGiftGuide - Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer
Ready for some THRILL POINTS?!Then head on out and purchase Judy Moody and the NOT Bummer Summer!
Well- She did alright, but not like you would expect!!!!
This really was a cute movie...
Talk about a bummer summer!!!
Long story short, she works hard to change it into a race to see who can get the most thrill points and win, but she keeps falling short... As the preview for the movie shows, they go on a roller coaster ride (major thrill points if you don't hold on) but her friend ends up getting sick, all over her... Talk about LOSING points!!!
Top it off, her crazy Aunt Opal is in charge of watching her and we learn that she hasn't driven in over 10 years!!!!
Besides trying to earn major thrill points, Judy has other things going on....
She is in search of her teacher, Mr. Todd... on the last day of school, he promised a prize to whichever student found him over the summer...
As I said, this was a cute movie, but I will tell you, I got annoyed with Judy being so pouty!
Hey, her friend even called her a FUN SPONGE!
(I totally need to remember that one!)
There was a couple times when she would pout and then say she was staying in her room for the whole summer...
What happened to getting outside and having fun?!
Either way, Aunt Opal remembered what it was like to be a kid like that... and helped her to realize she was having fun... and could earn thrill points!!!!
I think this is a movie that the tweens in your life will love!
Even though it has a girl for the main character, I think boys will laugh at it as well!!!

I used to read Judy Moody to my 3rd grade class (I'm now retired) and they children always enjoyed it. Both boys and girls!
