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 Judy,
My name is Andrena. I'm 9 years old. My favourite book is Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing. I can relate to peter. My sister is just like fudge. Except when fudge tries to fly like a bird. I was sad when Dribble passed away. But I was really happy when peter got his dream pet. I think you should make a book about Jimmy Fargo because you wrote about peter,Sheila and Fudge.
Yours truly:
Andrena

Judy, I have loved your books since I was a little girl and especially when I was navigating the wild days of puberty. I just came across your name on Twitter and thought I recognize that name seeing your comment about the Florida Bill. I am a radio and podcast host in Canada and I would love to discuss this with you, and your wonderful career. Can I email you more information about the podcast? It’s called Women in Media and looks to explore all the things we encounter as public figures and profiles in the spotlight. Would be a very cool angle to have an author on!
Hi Judy!
I am 10 turning 11 next month. I have read your Romana and Beezus books when I was youger and I loved them. I have just finished reading "Are you there God, it's me Margaret" I think it is a wonderful book. I kind of relate but in a opposite way. I didn't want to bloom as fast as I did. It's a pain trying to find out what your shoe size is every other month and learning that you have to change your bra size again.Your books have shown me a lot and I'm very glad to have found you.
One of your adoring readers,
Malena.

My favorite Judy Blume book was Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.
My favorite part was when Peter got a new dog because it makes me happy when people are happy. I also felt bad when Fudge ate Turtle. Of all the books I have read, this is my favorite Judy Blume book so far you are my favorite author.

hi tell me about you pls
Dear Judy, Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to writing! You have been one of my favorite authors for over 30 years! I have a life goal to meet you someday at a book signing! I'm sure things are super busy with the new movie coming out next month and I anxiously await to see it! If you do go on a book signing tour in the future how would I be able to receive information? Once again thank you for everything! You're my hero!
in February 2020 the New York Times reported that Summer Sisters was going to be either a series or a movie on Hulu but I can't find it anywhere. Did it ever get done? it had a fabulous cast.
Hi Judy! I hope you are well. One of the teachers at the school that I work at in Manhattan just ordered tw of your books for her class. Being the Administrative Assistant at the school, I was the one ordering the books for her. I was so excited to mention to her that I used to work with your best friend at a school in Manhattan many years ago, who you based your book “Summer Sisters” on. Her eyes lit up, knowing I knew someone who knows you. I thought it would be wonderful if I could have you come in to speak to the students at the school that I currently work in. The students (and, of course the adults!) would absolutely love that!!
My favorite book is "Otherwise known as Sheila the Great".One reason why I liked Sheila the Great is because she overcomes her fears by facing them.Another reason why I liked how Sheila the great is because it tells you that you shouldn't lie and you might make it worse.In Sheila the Great, Sheila learns not to lie and that you don't have to be afraid of anything.Another reason why I like Sheila the Great is because as she goes on in the book she gets used to everything she's afraid of, lies about almost everything and gets over them by not doing it and facing it. I really like how Sheila is brave and confident to do that kind of stuff. That's why I like Sheila the Great.

My favorite Judy Blume book is "Otherwise Known As Sheila The Great" because its about a girl who spends the summer in a new town and has to get over her fear of dogs.I also like how this book is adventurous and creative.Sheila likes to lie a lot and has to learn to tell the truth.Sheila also has to get over her fear of drowning.She takes a swimming test and passes.That is why this is my favorite Judy Blume book.

Hello. My name is Ezra. Today I am going to tell you about my favorite Judy Blume book. My favorite book was "Tales of A Fourth Grade Nothing." I really like that book because of the crazy adventures (my favorite chapters were chapter 9, 10, and the school project + birthday party for fudge.) The story was very realistic and funny. I would read this forever if i could! Thank you for reading.

Hi Judy,
I grew up in Bountiful, Utah in th 1970's. I was the youngest of four daughters raised by my single mother in an incredibly Mormon and conservative city.
My mother was smart and able and she did not think she could have children. She married my father and had my oldest sister. Her Mormon doctor told her she could not get pregnant while breastfeeding and so she had my next sister a year later. The same doctor gave her hormones that he said were birth control, but were not, and my third sister came a year and 2 days later. I was the last birth control failure.
My mom loved us and she read to us. She raised us --4 girls-- as a single mother with very little support.
One of my favorite memories of my mom was that she read to us a lot. She read us "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret". My sisters were hitting puberty,but as the youngest, I had not.
When my mom read us the masturbation scene, I went to bed thinking about my secret spot and I tried to find it. I told my mom the next morning that I had found my secret spot and it was on my left elbow.
I appreciate that she was willing to read us your books, embrace our sexuality as girls and women even though we were in the Mormon culture. I appreciate that you have helped girls and women find our own sexuality and helped us value ourselves.
I found my secret spot and I respect you and my mother for helping me feel that sexuality is not shameful. I grew up in poverty and without a father. I was raped and hurt multiple times. I think many girls in my situation where we did not have homes that were safe have had the same experience.
Your books helped me own my own sexual experences. I will always be grateful to you.
As a mother now I see myself as teenager and I am so sad I was in the positions where I was not respected, where I was hurt, and where I was poor and so open to predators.
Your books helped me feel that I was valuable and that my sexuality was not something that should be shameful.
I am very grateful to you.
Much love and gratitude,
Ali
