Sometimes you have to find the good news, as Judy Moody discovers when she creates her own newspaper--featured as a bonus at the end of the book!
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow! Mr. Todd has Class 3T looking for the Five Ws in the day's newspaper, but all Judy can see is how much bad news is out there. Global warming! Endangered sea turtles with straws stuck in their noses! The good news is that Judy is taking all the bad news as a call to action. She gets out her notebook, clicks her six-year pen, transforms into a Kid Reporter, and goes in search of happier stories. Rare bird sighting in Virginia Beach! Escaped bearded dragon found! Plastic straws banned at Virginia Dare School! There's even a scoop that Judy overhears while ordering a scoop at Screamin' Mimi's--about someone who's found a real-live buried treasure! Kids intrigued by the Sunny-Side-Up News that Judy and her friends create--with fun stories, a word search, a recipe, and more--may be inspired to put together their own second edition. After all, there's no telling how much good news is out there until you start looking--and acting!Author Biography
