Banyak cara yang bisa dilakukan sebagai usaha untuk terkenal. Kalau Anda merasa punya bakat di bidang tarik suara atau tari-tarian, segeralah ikut ajang pencarian bakat. Merasa tidak punya bakat di kedua bidang itu? Berjoget-jogetlah sambil komat-kamit mengikuti lirik sebuah lagu - jangan lupa untuk menyalakan alat perekam - dan segeralah unggah ke youtube. Siapa tahu nasib Anda akan sama dengan duet keong racun. Atau, suara Anda sangat bagus tapi tidak ingin ikut ajang idol-idolan? Rekam saja d...more

In this book by Megan McDonald, Judy Moody tries everything that she can to become famous. Her classmate, Jessica Finch, won a spelling bee and Judy saw that this got her fame so she wanted the same. She tried to make up a lie about an ancient cherry, she tried to have a famous pet that did tricks and she tried to break a world record but these all ended wrong and Judy was still not famous. One day she accidentally stepped on her friends finger and broke it. They took him to the hospital and whi...more

I thought this book was very entertaining. It would a great book for 3rd graders that are just beginning to read chapter books. The concepts and words are very easy to read. I especially love the pictures. I think students at this age are tired of the funny story books with pictures on every page. They are now a little more advanced and reading more text than pictures. These pictures are placed just at the right spots to assist the reader in understanding the story line and characters. Judy Mood...more

Reading level: 3rd-4th

Reynolds uses black and white pictures throughout the story. The illustrations are used to just further enhance the story or scene that's being described. I enjoyed how many of the pictures are mixed in with the text, and sometimes are just neat little sketches that have to do with the story line. My favorite illustration is actually before the story even starts. There is a Hollywood star in the sidewalk with Judy Moody's name on it and the cat is looking at the reader, al...more

Ein supersüßes Kinderbuch

Judy Moody ist eifersüchtig auf ihre Klassenkameradin Jessica, denn die trägt plötzlich in der Schule eine goldene Krone (aus echtem Modeschmuckgold) . Nur zu gern erzählt Jessica, dass sie die Krone bei einem Buchstabierwettbewerb gewonnen hat und sogar in der Zeitung stand. Für Judy steht sofort eins fest, sie will jetzt auch so berühmt werden, dass sie mit einem Foto in der Zeitung steht und dazu ist ihr fast jedes Mittel Recht.

Dieses Kinderbuch ist sehr niedlich, or...more

Judy Moody is a young girl that easily gets in a mood. When she is in a mood it is not unusual for her to ROAR at people or just out loud. She is a wonderful character to read and her books are great fun for the young and young at heart. And with over 20 books in the Stink and Judy Moody series she is a very popular young girl. Her books have been translated and are enjoyed around the world. With every book I read, I enjoy the writing by Megan McDonald and the Artwork by Peter H. Reynolds even m...more

Wah g suka banget ma yang edisi ini.

Sejak berkenalan dengan Judy Moody, g tau kalau anak ini spesial justru karena kelakuan khas anak-anaknya. G berkata begini karena akhir-akhir ini g liat anak-anak cenderung bertingkah tidak selayaknya seumuran mereka. Kasian banget, keknya bertingkah normal itu jadi sesuatu yang mahal banget *curcooool* hahah!

Back to Judy Moody...selain lucu, buku ini juga banyak menyampaikan pesan moral positif. Misalnya seperti : tidak semua yang u harapkan bisa terwujud,...more

Judy has more depth and dimension in this second installment. She still harbors some of the same feelings about her brother Stink, but their relationship is more amicable. And although envy and jealousy motivate much of Judy's quest for fame, readers can't help but feel for her when she can't find a single event in her life to earn a place in the Moody Hall of Fame. Throughout the text she learns the difference between becoming famous, infamous and just plain criminal. Judy might be known for be...more

Judy wants to be famous. Wants desperately to as well known Jessica Finch, who is the spelling queen of North Virginia. As famous as her brother who has met the President. So Judy sets out to find a way to get her name in the paper. And given that this is Judy, she fails spectacularly along the way. But can Judy learn that the becoming famous is less important than she thinks?

Nice second volume that is full crazy situations that readers have come to expect. Author Megan McDonald also manages to...more

Seperti biasa, cerita-cerita tentang Judy selalu ringan, seru, lucu dan asyik dibaca :)
Awalnya biasa-biasa saja sih, menceritakan berbagai hal yang dilakukan Judy dalam upayanya untuk menjadi terkenal, setidaknya nama dan fotonya masuk koran lah.. lucu, saat akhirnya masuk koran, yang terpampang di koran hanya sikunya :))

“A-A-R-D-W-O-L-F, aardwolf. . . . You’re W-E-I-R-D.” this is what Judy’s brother says after she tries to make herself famous by winning a spelling bee. But Judy doesn’t always get her way. She also doesn’t have the support or experience she needs. But determined, Judy will go for the next best thing if she doesn’t achieve the other. Judy is the most hyper and vigilant person I know.
Like when I joined the soc...more

My 2nd grader loves these books, and I love them just because it fills me with joy to watch her love reading. These books are perfect for her reading level and interest, and we've gone through many different books to find something perfect for her. So believe me, I'm very happy with these books!

But this one in particular was really good. I like how Judy Moody got famous. It's a great life lesson for all elementary aged children. Highly recommend this for your young readers.

Judy Moody is a great book to teach students that fame is not everything. Judy tries so hard to get recognized but never does until she goes out of her way and does something good for others. She does not get her name in the paper or on the school wall but she knows inside what she did and that she made a difference. That is something to share and talk with your students about.
NancyJo Lambert
Well, I have to admit that I like Judy Moody. She is real, quirky, and well, moody. I like that about her. In this book, Judy wants to get famous. She tries several things, but ultimately it is a selfless and genuine move that only sort of gets her some fame. I would absolutely recommend this book to young readers!
Calle

Another great Judy Moody book. I liked the story. These are nice, normal kids in these books. In this one, I liked the lesson Judy learned -- she became famous for an anonymous, kind gesture. A nice ending in today's famous-for-being-famous culture.
Annie Ma
I think this book is good. I think that because it is about judy getting a lot of ways to get famous. She did silly thing to get famous. She try to get in the world famous book, but she did not.So this but is a great book that I read in middle school.
Andrea Sanchez
Great to read to an elementary level class. Teaches students that we don't always have to be famous, or popular, to be someone. :) Also teaches that we are all different and good at different things than everyone else.
Alexis
I love the Judy Moody series for young readers. The way she views the world is very similar to that of many children her age. Judy Moody can be used with students who have grown out of Junie B. Jones books.

Second in the Judy Moody series, Judy is now determined to become famous. But, it's turning out to be more difficult than what she would like. Will Judy get her chance? A surprise ending.
Eugene
It's a very fun book to read, because Judy was trying all these ways to make herself cool and something like that. Here's one thing I realize about the series and the stink series. In this series, stink sort of became so annoying, but when it comes to the stink series, his sister sort became the bad guy.
Williams
Sky-I enjoy this book.It was so fun.It was about how to get famous. I didn't like to famous to friends.But, I am now famous to my friends,family, and to everyone in the world.

"Sometimes I think I am Judy Moody," says Megan McDonald, author of the Judy Moody series, the Stink series, and THE SISTERS CLUB. "I'm certainly moody, like she is. Judy has a strong voice and always speaks up for herself. I like that."

For Megan McDonald, being able to speak up for herself wasn't always easy. She grew up as the youngest of five sisters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her father, an...more
