This is the third book in the fudge series
It has been ages since I read this book so I will quote the back of it:
"Peter Hatcher's summer is not looking good. First of all, Peter's brother, Fudge - the five year old human hurricane- has a plan: to marry Peter's sworm enemy, Sheila Tubman. Worse, Peter's parents have decided to rent a summer house next door to the Tubmans. Will Peter survive the summer? It may not be the vacation of Peter's dreams but as millions of Judy Blume fans know, it won't be dull."

Grade 2-5-- The Tubmans and the Hatchers return in this latest chronicle of the hilarious escapades of Fudge, Pete, and Tootsie Hatcher and Sheila "Queen of Cooties" Tubman. Their parents decide to spend their summer vacation in the woods of Maine right next door to each other--but "next door" turns out to be in the same house. Fast-paced mayhem becomes the order of the day as children, adults (including Grandma Hatcher and Grandpa Tubman), and assorted pets find themselves in daily (hourly?) predicaments. Not to be outdone in the madcap pace, Grandma and Grandpa announce their intention to be married. The story concludes with the solemn pact between Pete and Sheila that even though they'll be related, they will always hate each other. The story is filled with humor, and the upbeat mood is sustained at a hectic pace from first page to last. The uncomplicated plot is developed smoothly with just the right doses of surprise and laughter to keep readers turning the pages. Characters are credible, and never lose their identities
"(A) fast-pitched,funny novel...The colorful antics of all members of the two families makes reading these pages a treat."- Publishers Weekly
Part of the "Fudge" series by Judy Blume, one of the greatest children's writers ever. I grew up with Judy Blume books, and now my children will too.
What can you say about Judy Blume? My 9 year old son loved this one.
This book is in good condition.
This books cover is about 1 in from the botom torn. Other than that it is in good condition and very much readable.
The cover of the book I have is different, it's also an older book so it's NOT in new condition. However, the cover is not torn or dirty. Still completely readable!
