Freaky Monday

fullDescription

Hadley is pretty much the model student: straight As, perfect attendance, front row in class. So what if she's overstressed and overscheduled: She's got school covered. (Life—not so much.)

Ms. Pitt is the kind of teacher who wants you to call her by her first name and puts all the chairs in a circle and tells her students to feel their book reports.

Hadley wishes Ms. Pitt would stick to her lesson plan. Ms. Pitt wishes Hadley would lighten up.

So when Hadley and Ms. Pitt find themselves switched into each other's bodies, the first thing they want to do is switch right back. It takes a family crisis, a baffled principal, and a (double) first kiss to help them figure out that change can be pretty enlightening.

Even if it is a little freaky!

     April 20, 2009
     With help from screenwriter Hach (who wrote the screenplay for the 2003 film adaptation of Freaky Friday
     ), Rodgers reprises her 1972 novel with this unexceptional follow-up that features teacher and student in the switcheroo roles. Hadley, 13, excels at academics but feels “like the lame consolation prize of the family” compared to her athletic, gorgeous sister, Tatum. Ms. Pitt, who is so devoted to her students she has neglected her own life, has taught both sisters. During a class discussion of To Kill a Mockingbird
     , she innocently compares Hadley to Tatum, causing teacher and student to simultaneously quote Harper Lee's text about not really understanding a person until you “climb into his skin and walk around in it.” Lights flicker and voilá: Hadley, in Ms. Pitt's body, has instant access to the teacher's lounge, while Ms. Pitt must handle romantic attention from the boy Hadley's been crushing on. A few slapstick scenes occur before the predictable ending in which Hadley realizes that she has talents, Tatum has flaws and Ms. Pitt needs to get out more. Amiable but nothing new. Ages 9–12.

     November 1, 2009
     Gr 5-8-Thirty-five years after the release of "Freaky Friday" (HarperTrophy, 1972), Mary Rodgers has teamed up with Heather Hach (screenwriter for the most recent "Freaky Friday" movie) to introduce a new reason to hate Mondays (HarperCollins, 2009). Over-achieving eighth-grader Hadley Fox has forgotten to prepare for her oral presentation. In a moment of consolation, Hadley's over-extended English teacher, Ms. Pitt, compares Hadley to her oh-so-perfect-and-beautiful older sister, Tatum. One classic body-switching moment later, Hadley finds herself in her teacher's body, being stared down by the school board for the English Department Chair interview. Over the course of the day, Hadley comes to see both Ms. Pitt and Tatum in a new light, and learns that nobody has the perfect life. Finally, under the incandescent glow of a surprise I Hate Mondays school dance, Hadley vows to quit studying so much, Ms. Pitt decides to cut back on her extracurricular commitments, and the two return to their own bodies. Hadley's curt observations are laugh-out-loud funny. She is sensitive, yet still has pig-headed moments, and listeners will latch on to her teen crises. Jennifer Stone's reading is spot-on adolescent melodrama. However, the overall situation feels superimposed on the characters, and the plot holds no surprises for those familiar with Rodgers' classic. Still, this is a humorous excursion for fans of "Freaky Friday" and those who enjoy novels by Lisa Yee."Richelle Roth, Boone County Public Library, KY"
