Letter from Booker T. Worm
We know that Judy Blume is one of your FAVORITE authors! She is one of ours too. The news this week is that her newest book in the Fudge series --- DOUBLE FUDGE --- just came out. We have a BIG feature about that for you, complete with trivia games and TWO word scrambles (one is easy and the other is a challenge!).

By the way if you cannot see our snazzy new newsletter in color, complete with pictures of book covers, go to the link at the bottom of my letter to read our newsletter online. For kids on AOL with Kids Only accounts, we cannot send you newsletters with graphics, so this link is your ticket to see the pictures that we have added.

And without further ado...our lineup for the week...
Series Feature: Double Fudge

Farley Drexel Hatcher, better known to his fans as "Fudge," is back in a new adventure full of his usual tricks that make life chaotic. Read all about Fudge's "new phase," his oddball relatives, and his Halloween catastrophe in Judy Blume's hilarious new tale, DOUBLE FUDGE. And be sure to check out the other reviews, fun facts, and games in our Kidsreads Fudge feature.

Book Review: ABARAT by Clive Barker

ABARAT by Clive Barker
Sixteen-year-old Candy Quakenbush finds herself caught up in a mystery when she discovers a lighthouse in the middle of a Minnesota field. Her journey takes her to a fantasy land of colorful characters and exotic islands known as Abarat where she experiences a whole new world of wonderful and frightening adventures. ABARAT is the first in what Barker has stated will be a series of fantasy novels for young people.
