Judy Moody was in a Mood by Megan McDonald. Illustrated by Peter H. Reynolds. Judy Moody #1. Candlewick Press, 2000.

#tbt features a book and series that you won't find at TMS library but that might have a special place in your heart, as it does mine. It was twenty years ago this spring when readers were introduced to Judy Moody in Judy Moody was in a Mood. Judy Moody doesn't have high hopes for third grade or her teacher, Mr. Todd in book one. She remains a third grader in all fifteen books of the series and its spin-offs. Her little brother, Stink, even got a series of his own.
