Blubber

By: Judy Blume

Narrated by: Halley Feiffer

Blubber is a good name for her, the note from Wendy says about Linda. Jill crumples it up and leaves it on the corner of her desk. She doesn't want to think about Linda or her dumb report on the whale just now. Jill wants to think about Halloween.

But Robby grabs the note, and before Linda stops talking it has gone halfway around the room.

That's where it all starts. There's something about Linda that makes a lot of kids in her fifth-grade class want to see how far they can go -- but nobody, least of all Jill, expects the fun to end where it does.

My second time with this book

I first read this when I was about 8. It was the first book I ever chose on my own and I loved it! I am now in my 50’s and thought I’d revisit it to see if I still did. Yep! Still do! Great work!

Tells About Kids And There Action's

I loved this book because it taught me that some kids act this way and don't realize that it hurts others like when my child was bullied for 3 to 4 years she didn't want to go to school or do anything so we moved and went farther away from that school so thank you for writing this book it showed me what to say and what to do thank you!

none of it

I liked all of it but some it I thought was really bad but overall I really enjoyed it

Narration is awful

I loved Judy Blume books as a child and am glad they are available on Audible. Unfortunately, the narrator for this book is one of the worst I've heard. I recommend buying the book and skipping the audio version of Blubber.

Didn’t like the reader

The book was great but didn’t care for the reader. Sounded like she was somewhat not fluent in what she was reading. Sounded young.
