How Andrew finally manages to achieve a temporary set of freckles - and then isn't sure he really wants them - makes a warm and hilarious story. Freckle Juice by Judy Blume is the focus of this novel study for students with autism and special learning needs. He carefully begins to mix the strange combination of ingredients - and immediately runs into some unforeseen problems. After school, Andrew rushes home (with the recipe tucked into his shoe for safekeeping). Finally, the freckles win, and Andrew decides to accept Sharon's offer. The results are unexpected and funny presented with a keen eye for real children and their desires. That's a lot of money to Andrew - five whole weeks allowance! He spends a sleepless night, torn between his desire for freckles and his reluctance to part with such a substantial sum of money. Andrew really wants to have freckles like his friend Nicky so badly that he buys a fake formula from his class enemy, Sharon. Sharon offers to sell Andrew her secret formula for freckle production. A classmate named Sharon overhears Andrew asking Nicky how he got his freckles. He is easily distracted because he is thinking so much about freckles. And, as luck would have it, who should overhear him but giggling, teasing Sharon (who makes frog faces at everybody!) Sharon offers Andrew her secret freckle juice recipe - for fifty cents. Andrew Marcus desperately wants freckles like his classmate Nicky Lane. (Once sitting behind him in class, Andrew counted eighty-six of them, and that was just a start! One day after school, Andrew screws up enough courage to ask Nicky where he got his freckles. His classmate Nicky has freckles - they cover his face, his ears, and the whole back of his neck.
More than anything in the world, Andrew wants freckles. Andrew Marcus desperately wants freckles like his classmate Nicky Lane.
