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.

Hi! I'm writing a speech on you for my comm class; just stopping by to say hey!
Thank you so much for your books. They were meaningful to my childhood, and now they are meaningful to my 10 year old daughter. We just finished reading “Are you There God It’s Me Margaret” together, and I could see the positive impact on her. Reading a book like this together helps her be less apprehensive about the inevitability of getting her own period.
Hello my name is Kelsey Cobb. I am a student at CVTC. I am emailing you because for a class assignment we are participating in banned book week and one of the activities that we can do is write to a banned author and I choose Judy Blume. I want to ask you questions about the book Forever. My questions are
What gave you the idea for Forever?
How do you feel about Forever being banned?
How do you respond to critics who claim Forever is inappropriate for readers?
Were there any parts of Forever where you worried about pushback while writing it?
How has being the target of a book ban changed your creative process or your relationship with future writing?
What kind of support—or resistance—have you experienced from your publisher, community, or fellow writers since Forever has been challenged?
Who do you believe should have the ultimate authority over what readers can read?

We have just started reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing in my Grade 4 classroom. Students are excited to find out what happens to Peter and Fudge. Thank you for writing so many great books.
Judy,
I grew up on your books…is there any chance you’d write a Ramon Quimby age 48 to walk my generation through midlife and menopause? I know there are many of us wishing you did!!

Hello Judy,
I have returned for the third year, with a new group of grade 4 students.
Based on your book, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, students are excited to explore what happens to Peter and his brother, Fudge.
One student asked, "How long did it take you to write Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing?" Another student asked, "Why did you write this book?" "Was it based on something?"
Other questions my students have are:
"How many books have you written?"
"Why did you like smelling books when you were younger?" (This was based on a video we watched about you).
"What was your best selling book?"
"What kind of stories do you write?"
Thank you,
Ms. Kelly Webber and the Students of 4W

Hi Judy,
I am a Dad of 2 boys age 9 and 10. It can be hard to get them to read books and listen to me read to them when there are so many distractions out there today (ipads, social media, phones etc). Of all the books and authors we've tried, your books have been been the ones they like more than anything. Specifically The Fudge series. My kids really enjoy Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing but they love Otherwise Known as Sheila The Great the most. It is a wonderful book! I am reading Blubber to them right now. Your ability to write first person from a child's perspective is unmatched. Thank you for writing so many special books for kids that parents can then share with their own children one day. Mike Ross

Hi Judy! I cannot tell you how many times I've read Are you there god? It's me, Margaret. I love that book so much! 😍 It's my 3rd favorite book and favorite book by you!
Dear Judy,
My name is Madelyn and I am eight years old
I just finished reading tales of a fourth grade nothing and I think it is a super good book. My favorite part is when fudge tried to fly or when fudge ate dribble. I think that Dribble or Fudge is my favorite character.

Hi Judy,
I just watched your documentary on Amazon and I instantly remembered you from books I read growing up. Freckle Juice was one of my favorite books as a child. I’ve been wanting to write for years now and I finally started drafting a fiction book this summer. The problem is, I feel like fear and intense anxiety keep crippling me for days at a time. Ive written about 12 chapters so far but now I keep second guessing and wondering if what I’m writing is terrible and I need to start over from scratch, or I sit there and just draw a blank, and then my mind shuts down. Do you have any suggestions or advice?

Dear Judy Blume,
My class just finished reading Tales Of a Fourth Grade Nothing. It was so funny! I loved the part when Mr. Hatcher dumped cereal on Fudge.
