I recently read a library book called "Freckle Juice" by Judy Blume. "Freckle Juice" is about a boy named Andrew who wants freckles but doesn't know how to get them. A girl named Sharon told him that she had a secret recipe for freckle juice that would make sure he got freckles. At school Andrew gave Sharon fifty cents and in return she gave him the freckle juice recipe. He ran home and made the freckle juice and made a BIG MESS! He drank it and at that moment he felt very, very tired. He went to sleep and in the morning he was sick and his mom told him he had appendicitis. He was very very mad at Sharon because he was sick and still didn't have any freckles. When he went to school the next day he used a blue magic marker to put dots all over his face and body. The teacher at school gave him a special recipe to get rid of the freckles. "TURN ON WATER. WET MAGIC FRECKLE REMOVER AND RUB INTO FACE. RINSE. IF MAGIC FRECKLE REMOVER DOES NOT WORK FIRST TIME . . .TRY AGAIN. THREE TIMES SHOULD DO THE JOB. MISS KELLY" After Andrew got back in the classroom Nicky said to someone that she hated her freckles and Sharon heard her, she whispered to her that she had a secret recipe for removing freckles that had been in the family for years and she said she said she'd sell it to her for fifty cents. . .WHAT?! That is the crazy story of "Freckle Juice."
