In summer school all of your books they where super funny I love your books my faviorate book is superfuge and otherwise know as sheila the great.

Dear Ms. Judy,
I hope this note finds you and your loved ones well.
A few years ago, I wrote to you while I was navigating a turbulent time following my father’s passing. His death unearthed many painful and uncertain memories from my childhood. My father, an avid reader, encouraged my love of books, he was often away due to his military obligations. That left me alone with my mother, who, for reasons I never understood, dislike me for as long as I can remember.
During those long summers confined to my room, your Superfudge series became my lifeline. I still remember earning those books from my elementary school teacher, one at a time, for making “Student of the Quarter.” They became my greatest treasures. I lived inside your stories, and they helped me survive the loneliness and pain I felt growing up.
I write every day now, hoping one day to publish something of my own without the heaviness of shame that still lingers.
Ms. Judy, I love you and I am deeply grateful for the worlds you created, which gave children like me hope and a place to belong, even when our real lives felt so small and confined.
Yours sincerely,
CindyAnn

Judy I would love to meet you And buy some books for you to Autograph. I am 37 And have been a big fan since I was 7 years old!

Dear Judy,
I'm not sure if I have written to you before, but I wanted to thank you for being a big part of my formative years. My friends and I would go to your books to answer 'those' awkward questions we couldn't ask the 'adults' (our parents) and your books were our guide. We laughed, and we cried and we loved all of your books. My copy of Forever was passed around the entire school and it was 2 years before I got it back! haha
"Are You There God, it's me, Margaret" I absolutely resonate with. This was definitely a story about my friends and I when we were 12. Those awkward pre-teenage and teenage years!
As a reader, you never patronised us. You made us feel "normal" and your characters were so relatable.
I am currently watching "Tiger Eyes" and the memories of the story all came back again. I remember crying when I read the book, and I'm crying again when I watch the film. Wolf and Davey were absolutely lovely. And Mr Ortiz (**sob**) Aunt Bitsy and Uncle Walter!
I've had a thrill of seeing you in some of the films too...hahaha
Judy, you have been such an inspiration! Now that I am an adult myself, I love your writing style and your storytelling.
I can not thank you enough for sharing your stories with us and making us feel like you are one of us!

Hello Judy. My 16 year old daughter gave herself henna freckles. They look adorable and real. Made me think about, Freckle Juice. I think I read that book so many times it disintegrated. Hugs to you. Thank you for sharing your brilliant imagination and honesty with us

thank you, judy. Ive read so many of your books and adored them, but there's something about summer sisters. I was obsessed with it when I was young. I just bought another copy and was crying at the end. It was just as powerful 25 years later. I just wanted to say thanks for writing incredible books

Dear Judy Blume,
I was wondering if you have ever considered wiring “Margaret in Menopause”?
This would be a fine sequel to “Are You There God, It’s Me Margaret”. All of us now middle-aged women learned about our periods and puberty from you back in the 1970s and 1980s. We are now sweaty and bear our belly pouches with pride.
Your forever fan,
Suzanne Reese Silliman

Hello! I saw a post on social media that said “I wish Judy Blume would write a book about Margaret going through perimenopause. We could use that right about now.” As someone born in 1969 who grew up on your books and now coping with the challenges of perimenopause, I would read the hell out of this.

Hello Judy
I'm still reading your books over and over. I want to be a writer too and have ever since I was a teenager. I have written my autobiography.Now I'm working on a fiction story set in 1974. I was only eight that year but I do remember what it was like back then without technology. Jim and Carolyn Powell have three children. Nancy is the oldest. She got straight A's in high school and is starting college. Luke is the middle. He's about to start his senior year in high school. He wants to be a drummer in a rock band and he's talented.His father wants him to go to college but he doesn't want to. Luke and his father don't see eye to eye. He just wants his father to be proud of him but Jim doesn't show it. Carolyn tries to soften Jim up and tries to explain what Luke wants. Luke resents Nancy because he believes his parents favor her. Christina is the youngest. She's about to start junior high. She wants a color TV instead of the little black and white set they have. Jim tells her they're too expensive. Christina is concerned about her development. She wants breasts so she can fill out a bra. She attends the 6th grade dance but the boy she wanted to dance with dances with Melissa who is more developed than she is. Melissa tells Christina she's a slow developer. Down the street from the Powells lives Ronnie Malone a Mexican American nineteen year old with long black hippie hair. He hitchhiked there to get away from his parents. He's nineteen and on his own. Christina thinks he's cute. When she and Nancy go swimming he saves Christina when she nearly drowns. My favorite part so far is Nancy's graduation party. Ronnie shows up with beer and sneaks out to the garage. He offers Luke some beer and gets him drunk. They laugh, stagger around and stumble. Ronnie passes out. Nancy finds Luke and has to walk him into the house. Drunken Luke kisses Nancy's pretty best friend. Guests help him to his bedroom but then he says he feels sick so they have to take him to the bathroom. In his room they undress him and he passes out. Then they have to decide what to do about Ronnie passed out in the garage. Two guests carry him out to their car. Nancy gets rid of the evidence before her parents and a Christina get home. I'm basing Ronnie on my husband. He was Ronnie's age and much like him then. I took a phone call at work. A man said he was Chris Malone. His name had a nice ring to it so I used the last name Malone. I also liked Ronnie Van Zant from Lynard Skynyrd. In one scene Nancy has a date at a concert. During the concert a man runs naked across the field. Streaking was a popular prank that year. I mention songs from that time, commercials, movies, fashion and technology 8 track tapes, records, typewriters,cars, etc. Nancy is a good sister to Christina. She looks up to her older sister. Now summers over and they're back in school. Christina deals with a tough teacher. Still got a long way to go but I'm getting to know these characters.
