Tales of a Fourth Grae Nothing is a novel written by Judy Blume in 1972 with interior illustrations by Roy Doty. It is the first of the "Fudge books." It was followed by Superfudge, Fudge-A-Mania, and most recently Double Fudge. Though Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great features many of the same characters as Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, it does not fit exactly in the continuity of the Fudge books because it only focuses on Peter’s classmate, Sheila.
