Freckle Juice by Judy Blume

4.0

Andrew is in the second grade and wants freckles more than anything else in the world. If he had freckles like Nicky then his mother wouldn't be able to tell that he hadn't washed. Plus, freckles are just so cool. His classmate, Sharon, picks up on his desire and offers to sell him her family's secret recipe for freckles--for fifty cents (five whole weeks allowance!). Andrew really wants freckles, though, so he pays up. In the end, it might not be what he wanted after all.

Blume's chapter book is adorable and a good lesson about differences and seeing that the grass isn't always greener. Good story and a fun read.
