Bookroo's summary

Fudge dreams of buying the world with his homemade 'Fudge Bucks,' but chaos ensues when he and his brother Peter meet their quirky relatives, the Howie Hatchers. Among them is a younger cousin, also named Farley Drexel Hatcher, who mirrors Fudge's knack for trouble. As the two Fudges collide, Peter must navigate the pandemonium of twin cousins and a mischievous mini-Fudge. Can Peter keep his sanity amidst the madness, or will the Fudge duo's antics prove too much to handle? Discover the hilarity and heart in this classic tale of family and mischief.

From the publisher

Part of the classic Fudge series from Judy Blume, bestselling author of Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing!

Fudge is obsessed with money. He’s making his own “Fudge Bucks” and has plans to buy the entire world. But life gets really crazy when Fudge and his older brother, Peter, run into their long-lost relatives, the Howie Hatchers. Now they have to deal with annoying twin cousins and a weird younger cousin, coincidentally named Farley Drexel Hatcher—just like Fudge! Their names aren’t the only similarity, and before long, mini-Fudge is causing just as much trouble as Fudge always has!

“As a kid, Judy Blume was my favorite author, and _Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing_ was my favorite book.”—Jeff Kinney, author of the bestselling Wimpy Kid series
