Fans of the Judy Moody books know that Judy Moody always has a mood. Her current mood is jealousy. Jessica won the Queen Bee crown from the N.V. Spelling Bee, also know as the Northern Virginia Spelling Bee. Judy Moody sets out to become just as famous or more than Jessica. It won’t be easy though because there are things that come up to thwart her plan at every turn. Instead of becoming famous, she might become infamous instead. I would recommend this for any collection owning others in the Judy Moody series. ( )

Great for early readers.

Judy Moody is JEALOUS with a capital J when she finds out she's pretty much the only one she knows that hasn't been in the public's eye. She sets out to become famous, no...INFAMOUS...and in the process learns that sometimes it's the journey that's more important than the notoriety...though she'd still SERIOUSLY like a make up picture because the whole elbow thing, yeah, hard to tell whose it was!
