Judy says: Thank you, thank you for all your wonderful notes. I only wish I could write back to each of you personally. But in order to start a new book I need serious thinking time, which means less time for e-mail. Hope you understand.
Just want you to know that my assistant and I read this guestbook every day, and try to respond when appropriate. Your continued love and support are a constant inspiration.

Dear Mrs Blume,
My name is Adrian and aged 43. My teacher read us Tales of a fourth grade nothing when I was about 9 years old. I loved it and never forgot it, she then read us the next two. It got me into reading.
So I have just finished reading the whole Fudge series to my own son, Mason. The most recent ones I hadn't read.
Thank you for introducing me to reading, your an inspiration.
And now over to my son who has written you this without help:

I have a story about a beautiful Laguna Green Mini that someone must have loved a lot, I say this because I have evaluated her thoroughly preparing her for her next adventure in life. She now belongs to a Princess who absolutely loves her. She named her Tilly, and Tilly has been fully restored to just like new. The Princess has promised she will care for Tilly just like her other mother did.
I thought you might want to know. {I'm the Grandfather of the Princess}

I have been thinking of you often as your books have meant so much to me. My mother gave me a copy of “Are you there god? It’s me Margaret. ” when I was 11. I am now 30, and even still - just thinking of Margaret makes me cry. I grew up in a very religious environment where questions weren’t allowed, much less concerns about puberty or finding my own faith/religion. Margaret opened the world to me and made me feel less alone. Thank you for writing the way you do. Thank you for not talking down to your readers. I always felt that you understood what it was like to be me at whatever age, and that nothing I felt was ever ridiculous or silly just because I was a kid. I have always felt seen by your characters and I will always be an advocate for your books. Much love and respect always, Kylie.
Dear Judy Blume:
My name is Andrew, and I am a young adult from Mexico, I heard for the first time about your works in a YouTube video about forbidden books that were made into films, and it was Are You There God? Its Me Margaret, so I watched the movie, then I decided to buy and read the book, and I liked it so much, then I bought your other masterpieces such as Then Again, Maybe I Won’t, Deenie, Forever... and Tiger Eyes, and I loved them so much, I mean, you became my favorite female author, while I read your books I would put on Spotify the music of the years that the aforementioned books were published, as a way to imagine how it was life like for the book characters back in the 1970s and early 1980s.
Probably I need to read more of your other works, and in Mexico, they really need to read more of you because as you have inspired many children, teenagers and adults in your country and other parts of the world, however you need to get more recognition here in Mexico that can help children and teenagers to be more themselves without feeling any shame.
Also I get inspiration from you to write a semi-biographical book about my life but set in a different era.
I can’t say more except thank you for everything, your books, and please, never ever stop inspiring the humankind but specially don’t ever stop writing.
Be eternal.
Sincerely yours.
Andrés Valor from Mexico.

Hi I recently, saw you on a commercial concerning book banning. I am not sure if you have seen Senator Kennedy from Louisiana discuss various books that were in school libraries that literally were close to porn Please take a look at these hearings which took place in Washington, so that you can get the full view of which books were asked to be banned Thank you
Hi Judy,
I’m 10 years old, my name is Cameron and I dressed up today as Fudge for World Book Day. I made Uncle Feather and Fudge bucks to take with me for my costume.

As a child, I loved the books about Peter and his brother Foudge. Now, as a mother myself, I read the book "tales of a forthcoming grade nothing" to my 7 year old son. He really took to heart the unfairness Peter felt through out the book. But nothing prepared me for the river of tears he cried at the end of the book when he realized "dribble" is dead. He was so upset he refuses to finish the last few lines.
I just wanted to say, thank you for making generations of children read, laugh and cry in solidarity.

hi Judy Blume my name is Eleanor, and we are celebrating Reading Across America. I love all of your books.I really like your book"The Fifth Grade Nothing"l also like Freckle Juice. You are one of my inspirations and all that you know I want to do too. you make me work hard and dream big!!!
Dear Judy,
I hope you are doing very well. Happy be-later birthday!
I just wanted to let you know that your name came up as well as a reference to “Are You There God….” on a recent airing of the sit com “Small Achievable Goals” by the CBC.
I would include the trailer clip that’s on YouTube if I could. I really think you’d love the homage of these two star crossed peri menopausal and soon to be co workers on a podcast. The line that hits is …”Where is Judy Blume when you need her…. (Something else), Where is Are you There God, it’s me, Menopause”.
I laughed so hard knowing how instructive and fun you made a girl’s most alarming biological experience become natural again.
My mother was lent that book for me to read at that tender age of 12 and soon followed by The Cat Ate My Home Work for my grade nine year- I practically looked like the girl on the cover!
So, thank you Judy for persisting through these attempts to censor your voice and the voices of 50% of the globe’s population.
You truly are a treasure!
Sincerely yours,
Sharon Welbourne
PS, although I’m into menopause and it’s gifts, I’d read the sequel to Margaret’s full circle experience;))

Dear Mrs. Judy Blume,
We recently read your great book, Freckle Juice. We LOVED it. We especially loved the part when Andrew put blue freckles on his face. We have a couple of questions.
Is Andrew Marcus based on a real person that you know? Did you write this book because you wanted freckles as a child? Finally, what is your favorite children's book that you wrote.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. We look forward to reading more of your books.

Hey Judy I love your books so much and I really want to become like you.can you please please please make a new book called BETTER a continuation of the book denie.
Hi Ms Blume,
I wanted to express my deep gratitude for your writings when I was growing up in the 1970's! What a "Right of Passage" it was as each of my friends shared one copy of the book "Are You There God". It was considered somewhat "risque'" for the times, truly amazing considering how much times have changed.
You did help me get through the first signs of puberty, and I, like many other women of my era, really wish you had written a book about menopause...It could be "Are You STILL There God, It's Me Margaret in Menopause". You should have given us all a heads up!
I have purchased the set of books for my granddaughter who has just turned 8yrs old and I cannot wait for her to READ READ THEM! A paperback book! No screen time, I sure hope and pray that she will begin to realize that there is a whole new & different world when you have a book in your hand.
I will let you know how it goes, hopefully she will read the series.
When she is a bit older I will share "Fifty Shades of Gray"!!!
Thank you so very much for your writings!

Hi Judy: I got to meet you a couple of years ago at your bookstore and it was such a highlight for me. Unfortunately, I was a little starstruck and didn't really get to tell you how much you meant to me as a child. I desperately needed glasses, but nobody realized that for a few years & my world was pretty small because I couldn't see very well. Then one day the school librarian gave me one of your books and I loved the world I could escape into with your stories. I read every single book of yours that our little library had. Grew up to work in an elementary school library and truly enjoyed introducing Fudge and friends to the kids! Thank you so much for the stories.
Hi Judy,
Just wanted to say that you are a Jersey icon, and super super slay.
Thank you.

Happy Birthday Judy! Our family survived February 11, 1952 at Salem Avenue Apartments! I was Monte Zahler's playmate. How ironic your birthday nearly coincides. Saw your movie filmed here in Charlotte, NC. Please contact me if you visit again. Parents Irv & Sophia Jacobson knew your parents. Susan Rosenfeld was my classmate. Josh & my brother Richie are still in touch! Wishing you many more years of good health & safety!
