The One In The Middle Is the Green Kangaroo: Fiction, Realistic - Author Study

The One in the Middle is the Green Kangaroo, written by Judy Blume and illustrated by Amy Aitken
Publisher: Bradbury Press, Inc.

Pages: 40

Genre: Fiction, Realistic

Rating: Thumbs Up!!

This is a book about 2nd grader, Freddy Dissel. He is the middle child who often feels left out or that he does not have a special place in his family or world. This all turns around for Freddy when he lands a role in the 5th and 6th grade school play.

I enjoyed this book and gave it a "Thumbs Up!!" because it is a story children can relate to. It is also a great early chapter reading level book that is easy to follow, with great illustrations.
