ABOUT THE BOOK Written by: Judy Blume What’s a guy gotta do to get some freckles More than anything in the world, Andrew Marcus wants freckles. These Freckle Juice activities will help guide your students through the book. The story ends with Sharon trying to sell him her 'secret recipe' for a so-called potion for removing freckles. This book has been around for many years, but it is still a hit with students today. Suddenly, Nicky then asks her for the 'magic freckle remover', claiming that he hates his freckles, but she tells him they did not look right on Andrew, but that he looks wonderful with them. Andrew washes his 'freckles' off and humbly returns to class, where Miss Kelly tells him that he is a very handsome boy without freckles. After recess, Miss Kelly gently sends him to the restroom with her 'secret formula' for removing freckles, which turns out to be a bar of lemon-scented soap. Unfortunately for him, no one is fooled by his drawn-on freckles.

Realizing that Sharon had swindled him, Andrew dots his face and neck with a blue magic marker (since he could not find a brown one) to try to show her that the 'freckle juice' had worked. It is nothing more than a nauseating mix of grape juice and assorted condiments that only serves to make Andrew sick enough to miss school the next day.
