  • Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.Pdf
    My biggest problem is my brother, Farley Drexel Hatcher. Everybody calls him Fudge. I feel sorry for him if he’s going to grow up with a name like Fudge, but I don’t say a word. It’s none of my business. Fudge is always in my way. He messes up everything he sees. And when he gets mad he throws himself flat on the floor and he screams. And he kicks. And he bangs his fists. The only time I really like him is when he’s sleeping. He sucks four fingers on his left hand and makes a slurping noise. When Fudge saw Dribble he said, “Ohhhhh . see!” And I said, “That’s my turtle, get it? Mine! You don’t touch him.” Fudge said, “No touch.” Then he laughed like crazy.

  • Self Regulation in Judy Blume's Young Adult Novel Tiger Eyes
    GAP BODHI TARU A GLOBAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES ( ISSN – 2581-5857 ) Impact Factor: SJIF - 5.171, IIFS - 5.125 TEEN-SELF AND SOCIETY: A STUDY OF EMOTIONAL- SELF REGULATION IN JUDY BLUME’S YOUNG ADULT NOVEL TIGER EYES Dr. Lotwala Kunjal K. Assistant Professor Agarwal Vidya Vihar English Medium College, Surat-3954518 Contact number: 8511099806 Email Id: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Emotional development is fundamentally the way emotions change and remain relentless across the human lifespan. Social development is the way in which human learns to interact with each other. Emotional-self regulation refers to a child’s capability to change his or her emotional state to either match that of the others in society or to make a child more comfortable in particular situation i.e. social or personal. It is a skill that a child develops over a period of time and involves both responding to situations with emotions that are socially acceptable and developing the ability to suppress emotions or delay spontaneous reactions when necessary. The present paper deals with three major aspects of socioemotional interaction in young adults. Firstly, it will analyze adolescents’ relationships with their parents. Here, the social relationship is to be discussed with the framework of the establishment of autonomy from the parents. Secondly, it also examines the influence of the adolescent’s peer group on attitudes, values, and behaviour. Peer groups play a major role in the development of friendship. Thirdly, the interaction with the members of the opposite sex-the phenomenon of dating in American culture discusses the psychological implications of norms associated with dating in adolescence presented in the novel.

  • Elisabeth Dellamonica
    Elisabeth D. 12/23/04 ELA 4CHM Judy Blume Write Life Judy Blume often gets ideas for her fictional writing from her personal experiences. I have read Blubber and Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume. I got my information off the internet, from a biography about Judy Blume and from an interview. Judy Blume has used lots of experiences from her life in her stories. Judy Blume got the character Fudge from her son Larry. Fudge is a character in Judy Blume’s books such as Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, Fudge-A-Mania, Double Fudge and Super Fudge. Fudge is based on Larry when Larry was a pre-schooler. Fudge and Larry had things in common. They were both pretty crazy and always want to have fun. That is one example of how Judy uses experiences from her life in her books. Judy Blume got the idea for Blubber from her daughter Randy. There was a very mean girl in her class that would make fun and tease people. In the story Blubber there is a mean girl named Wendy. Judy Blume got Wendy from the mean girl. Judy Bume said that if the teacher had been paying more attention then the girl would not be able to the kids very much. That is another example. In Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing Fudge swallows a turtle. The turtle is Fudge’s brother’s turtle named Dribble. Judy Blume got the idea for that from a newspaper article she read. The article said a young boy had swallowed a turtle.

Living in the same house with his super-annoying baby brother (who gets called Fudge because his real name is Farley Dexter) makes Peter crazy. Fudge screams, kicks, bangs, pesters, and messes stuff up all the time. Whether he’s throwing a temper tantrum in a shoe store or scribbling on Peter’s social studies homework, Fudge is never far from getting himself—and Peter—in big, big trouble. Yet somehow, this pint- seized terror manages to get away with murder while remaining the apple of every grown-up’s eye. Pity Poor Peter Hatcher. All he wants is to be a good student, play with his pet turtle, Dribble, and lead a calm, peaceful life with his friends and family without the World’s Worst Little Brother always ruining everything.
