Judy Moody Was in a Mood
Judy Moody Was in a Mood | Megan McDonald
16 posts | 20 read
Reissued in a way-cool paperback design "Judy Moody was in a mood. Not a good mood. A bad mood. A mad-faced mood." To start, Judy Moody doesn't have high hopes for third grade. Her new desk won't have an armadillo sticker with her name on it. Her new classroom will not have a porcupine named Roger. And with her luck, she'll get stuck sitting in the first row, where Mr. Todd will notice every time she tries to pass a note to her best friend, Rocky. An aspiring doctor, Judy does have a little brother who comes in handy for practicing medicine, a cool new pet, and a huge Band-Aid collection. Judy also has an abundance of individuality and attitude, and when Mr. Todd assigns a very special class project, she really gets a chance to express herself! Megan McDonald's spirited text and Peter Reynolds's wry illustrations combine in a feisty, funny first chapter book for every kid who has ever felt a little out of sorts.

Judy Moody was a BIG hit with Lane and Nina! They both thought the whole book was hilarious and were disappointed when we were done. They want to get the next book tomorrow! #raisingreaders

We finished reading Runaway Ralph the other night and I took the kids to the library to pick out our next book. Lane's choice was Judy Moody because it reminded him of his sister 🤣🤣🤣
I can see the resemblance!
In order to keep Miss Moody happy, we started her choice, The Chicken Squad, first and it has been fun and silly. #raisingreaders

I read this to make sure it was a good fit for an 8-year old I know. I think she‘ll enjoy it and we‘ll have an interesting conversation about it.

"I read this whole book in 6 days! I liked reading this book because it was so funny. Judy Moody has a brother just like me. His name is Stink... My favorite part was when Judy Moody and her two friends hid a pretend hand in the toilet seat to scare Stink out of the bathroom when he had to use it... Judy got peed on by a toad. I never want that to happen to me..." (Cadee, age 7)

TheBookgeekFrau Awwwww, that's so cute! 5y
Nute This is the cutest post! ‘Cadee, I hope that I am never peed on by a toad either. We must keep a careful watch. Happy reading to you!‘🙂 5y

We know we are taking slower tent camping life and living it to the fullest when we had to hunt down a used bookstore to get more books, having completed the ones we brought with us. #raisingreaders

jenreads7 That‘s an excellent problem to have! 🥰📚 5y

In this RF, Judy Moody is a funny relatable character for any student who's been in a bad mood. Judy is NOT looking forward to going to third grade and her new classroom. She is ready to quit until Mr. Todd, her new teacher, assigns an exciting project where Judy can show her style and individuality. This is a great teacher guide for this Judy Moody classic: http://www.judymoody.com/wp-content/uploads/JudyMoody_1_TeachersGuide.pdf

Bwhitley222 UDL 7.2 optimize relevance, value and authenticity is fitting for this book because being worried about going to a new class is relevant for students. The EL 30: encourage the use of diagrams and drawings as aids to identify concepts and seeing relationships could be used to draw parallels between self and Judy Moody. 5y
Kendylleonard I love the Judy Moody series! They are great books to have that teach lessons for older students. They can definitely read them and relate them to their own personal lives. I love your resource as well! It has multiple lessons that you can use for comprehension. 5y
DrSpalding A helpful teacher‘s guide to implement this series! You now know that the author would make an excellent author study as well. 5y

#Sassafras says AWESOME! He had many laugh out loud moments during our read. It has what I call “little boy humor” and his favorite parts were when characters were initiated into the Toad Pee Club. I enjoyed reading it to him. We are definitely going to get the next book in the series! A hit! 5/5🐸s

And while I love James and the Giant Peach, this was the book I pushed for. My childhood favorite, but oddly reminds me of my own daughter 😂 I‘ll get her to read it one day!

Another audiobook we listened to in the car on Monday. This was a free Audible download from Book-It. I really disliked the narrator. ? The story was just ok; Judy annoyed me. Even my nine-year-old hated how she kept saying "Rare!" or "Roar!" It got old pretty fast. Not in a hurry to read any more Judy Moody books. ⭐⭐ #kidsaudio

Last year while on vacation in Croatia we stopped at the Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb. It was a really interesting look at objects & writings when people are no longer #inthemoodforlove. I don't have pictures from the trip handy so I took this one from their website.

BookishMarginalia I read about that somewhere! 8y
