Freckle Juice by Judy Blume
3.5
funny lighthearted fast-paced

Andrew sits in class and counts the freckles on other kids’ faces. He desperately wants freckles. An annoying girl in his class offers to give him a recipe for freckles for 50 cents. Will it give him freckles? What will the teacher do about it? (I loved her secret recipe).

The audio for this book is less than 20 minutes (5 short chapters).

“I have a secret recipe for freckles juice.” Ch 1
“He kept thinking about freckle juice. Maybe the reason no one in his family had freckles was because no one knew the secret recipe. If they never even heard of freckle juice, how could they have any freckles?” Ch 2
