About This Book
In "Judy Moody and the Bad Luck Charm," eight-year-old Judy Moody believes she's found a lucky penny, which kicks off an incredible winning streak in everything from bowling to a spelling bee. This humorous chapter book follows Judy's adventures as she navigates the ups and downs of fortune, friendship, and family life, all while hoping her luck will take her to Washington, D.C. Part of the beloved Judy Moody series, this book is perfect for early to late elementary readers who enjoy relatable characters and laugh-out-loud situations. It gently explores themes of luck versus effort, resilience, and managing big emotions, much like the classic Ramona Quimby stories.
"The lucky penny in Judy Moody's pocket sure does seem to be working. She can't stop winning-at bowling, spelling, the unbeatable Prize Claw, everything! For sure and absolute positive, she'll ride that wave of good fortune all the way to Washington, D.C."--
