I'm sure I read a first edition of this, way back when, but I certainly didn't remember how mean all the kids were! Not a cheery read, but probably a necessary one. I know some teachers make this the annual beginning of the school year read-aloud.
Bullies, cliques, Halloween pranks, and some people get what they deserve, but not all of them.
I think I'm starting a little "Blume-fest" -- picked up a couple of Fudge books too, and open to suggestions...
