Dear Judy,
I hope you are well.
I just finished rereading Summer Sisters [for the fourth time in as many years]. Love this story.
There is something about Caitlin and Sharkey that just occurred to me. Their individual reactions to anything of a sexual nature makes me suspect that they were sexually abused as children. Nothing to this affect is mentioned in the story, but it is there in their behaviour. I can't help wondering, backstory: did something happen to them, perhaps by one of Phoebe's many boyfriends?

Happy new year Judy!

You are one amazing person! Thank you for being so awesome and for sharing your talent with us. You are so inspiring! Thank you for being a great example to all of us...

"Are You There God? it's Me Margret" was one of my favorite books growing up. As an elementary teacher, I've seen loads of kids love books like Fudge too. I have never read any of the adult selections until now. I just finished In the Unlikely Event and loved it! I not only enjoyed the read, I grew up in Maplewood and some of my childhood haunts were mentioned like Papermill Playhouse and Grunings on the Hill (the best vice cream and an even better view). Thank you for a great read and a reminder of my youth.

breanna

can I help you make a new book?

Jordan

Dear Judy Blume,
I have been in love with your books as long as I can remember. The books I love and read over and over again is "Are you There God, It's Me Margret", and "BFF" Right now I'm actually reading "Bff" for the first time. Your characters are bright and funny, and I would read this book when I'm an adult. Thank you for writing these AMAZING books. I hope you write more. Please write back soon.
Sincerely,
Jordan

Ms. Blume,
I can't believe I'm actually (kind of) talking to you. You have no idea how grateful my family and I are for you existence (I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm still going to say this because you're really awesome). I love laughing at Fudge and my parents wish Peter's sensibility could rub off on me (it obviously doesn't ), but if my serious parents laugh at Fudge's antics, that's saying something (the fact that they read a children's book is also saying something, but I'm not going to go there). It's really cool how you know how kids think, and write books that they will understand. I am seriously addicted to your books, and would give anything to meet you in person. (*NOTE* You probably hear everything mentioned above, like, every day, but the fact that it comes from moi makes it more special. )
I LOVE YOU (in case I haven't implied it before)!!!!

Smiles and Love,
Ramya

I have always loved your books! I read them to my children when they were little, and they have always inspired us. So much, in fact, that I have started writing books now for my own grandbabies! But, I really don't know what to do with them once I've got them done, lol. I printed them on Shutterfly to give to my own family, but would like to share them with others, so that they might be enjoyed by more people, as your books are! Any suggestions for me?

God bless you and all your future endeavors! You are a blessing to all of us already!

Dear Mrs. Blume,

I really, really hope that you get the chance to read this message. I wanted to let you know how much I adore your new book, In the Unlikely Event. I have always been a huge fan of yours, and reading your books throughout my childhood is what sparked my love for literature. I was so excited to see that you published a new book for young adults, and while I'm on my Christmas break from college I finally had the chance to read it. For two straight days I could not put it down! I learned so much from this book, and it made me even more obsessed with the 1950's-my favorite decade. I am currently heartbroken that I finished the book, because I did not want it to end. You are incredibly talented and I thank you profusely for your work. Happy New Year!

-Jenni

Hi Judy,
I just finished _In_the_Unlikely_Event_! I couldn't put it down, and now I can finally get to my chores.

I read most of your teen books growing up. You were definitely a favorite author among my friends and me.

I was going to ask you about Randy, but then I read about her being a commercial pilot. She may not remember me; we were in the same class in school when you lived here. In fact, I worked with the woman who bought your house. Small world! Please give Randy my best.

I'm looking forward to your next book!

Hi Ms. Blume,
I am so excited to get to write to you, because I love your Fudge books sooooooo much!!!!! I read them just about everyday. I know them by heart.
I am really hoping you decide to write another story about Fudge and his family and that you talk about them getting older. I want to learn who they will become as grown ups.
Please let me know if I can give you some suggestions or help. I would also love to meet you someday. Do you ever come to Southern California?
Thank you and Happy New Year!

Dear Judy Blume,
I'm your biggest fan. I know A LOT of people say that, but who else would read "Are You There God, it's Me, Margaret at 7 years old and use it for a school book report? Hehe. I love your books SO SO SO much,and I've read them around 5 times.(Yes, really.) I've read everything except the adult books, like Wifey. My favorite book by you would have to be "Are You There God, it's Me, Margaret", "Deenie", "Blubber" or "Here's to you, Rachel Robinson." It's funny, nobody in my grade has heard about you. Crazy, I know. You are my favorite author by FAR and I feel like your books kind of grow with me. I bet when I'm 12 I'll think "Ohhhh, now I get Judy's books!" I can't explain what I feel when I read your books. Your wonderful books have inspired me to write my own short stories.

Keep On Writing, and I'll keep on Reading!!

Love, Maya (Piggie Lover)

Over the summer, my teacher (who now works for pre-school, and I now got a new teacher) assigned us 3 book reports. For the second one I chose Tales Of a Fourth Grade Nothing. It was hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They could've chose a boring book like The Hobbit (no offense J.R.R Tolken),or To Kill a Mocking Bird (that's actually a good idea,but a boring book whoever wrote the book),but they chose THIS?!?!?!?!?! THANK YOU SCHOOL AND JUDY BLUME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris

Dear Judy Blume,
Can you please write more FUDGE books to entertain me?
I have read all of them and they are 500x300 hilarious and funny. I use the books to write my reading journal responses and they are really nice. My teacher really wants more too! If you do make one please make an EPILOUGE of when Fudge grows up! Please write one! Thank you and please write back soon. From, Christopher

I have just heard about judy's book about the plane crashes over ELIZABETH, NJ. I thought she might be interested in knowing that we (my mother and 4 children)were scheduled to be on the 3rd flight but we're late and then transferred to section B of that flight. We have lots of memories of this experience if Judy is interested

Robin

Just finished "in the unlikely event" on a plane headed home from Key West! Would have looked you up if I'd read the authors notes before I left. Thanks for a great vacation read! Loved the book and will return to Key West sooner rather than later!!!

Hi I'm Mackenzie Johnson and I'm from DC Everest Middle School. We are doing a author research paper and I choose you as mine. I was wondering were did you get your inspiration to start writing. I was also wondering what is your advice to other authors or people just starting writing. Please get back to me as soon as possible.

Dear Mrs. Blume,

I go to school at Buckley Country Day School in New York and my English class is going to grow beans with our favorite author's word on it. Once we get that information, we will send the word to a bean company. The bean company will then engrave the word in the bean. We will care for our beans and then they will grow. When the flowers sprout, the word will appear on the flower! Then, we will send our favorite authors the picture of the flower, to honor them.

Since you are my favorite author, I would be honored if you could tell me your favorite word and why it is your favorite. Also, if you have a favorite seed or flower, it would be greatly appreciated if you send the name or the seed to us. We would plant the seed or flower in your name. This project is very important to me, so if you would be so kind as to answer me back at 7english@buckleycds.com. My friend Julia will also be contacting you from your email. Thank you for your time and for your stories! Please write back!

Sincerely,
Anna

P.S. Here is the link to the magic bean company who will make your seed: http://livelovebean.com.au/magic-bean-shop/believe-achieve-magic-bean/

I just wanted to write to you to tell you how much your new book, In the Unlikely Event has perfectly portrayed the events that happened in the 1950s. My grandfather, Thomas Pagoulatos was one of your HS teachers in Elizabeth, NJ and he still speaks fondly of you. The AA Flight 6780 crash on January 22, 1952 that flew into the house at the intersection of Williamson and South Streets was the house of my great grandparents and my grandfather Tom Pagoulatos' parents.
My grandfather has read the book and really enjoyed it, he is doing quite well, still residing in New Jersey.

Peggy

Hi , I was wondering if you ever thought of doing a book about a child who's Mother and Father who are separated and the heart-ship and toll that the child go's though spending one week with the Mom the next week with his dad them not getting along. My nephew Mark is one of them kids and I have been looking for a book for him he has been reading your books as I did at his age. I think it would help him and many others

Victoria

Hi Judy! I've been reading the Fudge books since i was 10 and just discovered Summer Sisters and fell in love instantly. I'm kinda bummed there isn't a sequel or more to the story. Maybe involving Caitlin's disappearance explained or Vix's kid(s) growing up? I don't know anything really, I just really enjoyed the book and I'm going to read Smart Women next! Thank you for being such an awesome writer!

Lydia

how do you think of ideas?

Kayanne
