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.

Our fourth grade class just finished tales of a fourth grade nothing. I love your book, I like how you make the characters talk. I like how Fudge repeats and he can't complete a full sentence. I hope to see the Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing movie soon,And to read more of your books, And you too make even more great books just like tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing, Sincerely Ethan
Dear Mrs.Bloom I am in fourth grade this year and my class just finished Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and I want to tell you what my favorite parts are. My favorite parts of the book is when Fudge's friend Jennie did a huge puddle and when he thought he was a bird too.I also loved when Fudge tries to touch the bears when he went to the movies and when his mother noticed that Fudge ate Peter's turtle and the mother cried while Fudge was in the ambulance with Peter and mom.

Kyra

My class just finished Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.We read this book because we were in fourth grade.This book is really funny the funniest part about it is when Fudge gets a bowl of cereal on his head and when he swallows dribble.

Dear Judy Blume, my name is Juno Jackson and I’m 11 years old ( nearly 12 ) . I absolutely love your books and I have read loads of them . I’m not sure wether you know this but I think you are a distant relative of marriage to me .My grandma Jane’s uncle Bert’s wife was Jane and Jane is your sister I think . When my grandma told me this I was sat reading one of your books ( are you there God it’s me Margret ) when she told me I was sooooo excited . I really hope that this is true and you really are my great great uncles wife’s sister. My favourite books of yours are… are you there god it’s me Margaret , blubber , Deenie , here’s to you Rachel Robinson and it’s not the end of the world which helped me a lot when my parents went through a divorce.
Lots of hugs

I plan to visit your bookstore in Key West on Thursday, 10/12/23. Are you by any chance working there that day? Is there a good time to drop by for a brief conversation? I finally just watched what I deemed the PERFECT Margaret movie - as a new psychotherapist in Little Rock in the 1970s, I read and discussed this book aloud with a group of girls, my idea for a therapy group. We laughed, cried, talked about everything; this remains a vivid and fond memory. I have read many of your books since and have such appreciation of you.
Hello Judy,
I am watching Are You There God It's Me Margaret. I love the movie as much as the book. I just had to take a moment to tell you that I loved your books as a child. You as well as my Fourth Grade teacher are the reason I am an avid reader today. She read Blubber to us in class and I loved it so much that I went and got it at the library and read it again. I have loved reading ever since,you opened a world of great adventures for me.Thank you for your wonderful books, I truly enjoy reading them.

Dear Judy Blume,
I am ten years old, and I’ve had Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and Superfudge on my bookshelf for the longest time and have not read either of them, but then just four days ago I finished reading one of my books, and I decided to read Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and I loved it so much, so I was obviously super excited to read Superfudge. I loved that one to, I am super exited for reading the rest of the books in the series! I also loved Are You There God It’s Me Margeret. Thank you for writing such good books.
Sincerely, Sage

My 8-year-old son is reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing for the first time, and he was laughing so hard tonight that he rolled right off his bed! My friends and I loved your books as kids, and are so happy we can recommend them to our kids! Thank you for your amazing and timeless writing!
Judy,
I just watched Judy Blume Forever and I feel like I just had dinner with a long-lost family friend. I am 52 and read your books throughout my childhood, thanks to a great 4th grade teacher, Mrs. Jones. Thank you for sharing your whole self and your personal journey across the years. You've touched millions of young people and continue inspire new generations. Thank you for being you!

Could you please help us with Floridians Protecting Freedom Campaign? We are trying to get a constitutional amendment on the ballot for 2024 allowing the voters of Florida decide if abortion should remain legal. We have an Instagram page FPFMonroe. We also have ballot boxes to place in businesses. A post on our Instagram from you would be a real help.
Also if we can get petitions from 1800 Atlantic. Any ideas?
Thanks so much.

Hi Judy,
I loved your books a child, my absolute fave was Tiger Eyes. What a compellingly beautiful story!
Now as a very-close-to-40 I found myself last week re-reading Just as Long as We're Together and Here's to You Rachel Robinson, and found I couldn't put them down. Just brilliant! I love writing and always think the mark of a great story is when you feel you could read about the characters' lives forever.
So, with that in mind I have pressing questions... does Rachel go out with Jeremy Dragon when she gets back from music camp? Does Steph's mum marry the Stairmaster or get back together with her Dad? Do Charles and Rachel learn to get on? How are things for Alison once baby Matthew comes along? Does she win the vote for class president? I could go on ...!
I'd love to hear your thoughts on these important matters.
I'm currently writing a pre teen novel with a 'anxiety self help' element. I was so surprised to see some self help in Here's to you Rachel Robinson. You sure were ahead of your time! Thanks so much Judy for all your work, you clearly are a voice for many, a hope and a light when there feels like none and a massive inspiration to me as I ponder getting past the 'gatekeepers' of children's publishing.
With kindest regards,
Rachel

I just finished watching Judy Blume Forever. Your story is an amazing growing up story! As a 61 year old woman, my children and I will be talking about you, your life, your messages. And our lives for the rest of our lives.
It would be wonderful to learn how to invite you to speak to a group about your experiences of censorship when Reagan was elected and what is happening in America today.
Thank you for all you do!
Warm regards, Sarah

Hi Judy!
Dear Judy Blume,
Our class just finished Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing. Parts of the story I found funny were when Fudge ate Dribble, and when he cut his hair. I think your books are very funny and you're a great author. Sincerely,
Mac

Dear Judy,
Shockingly, this is my very first letter to you ever. It's shocking because I'm 47 years old and you've been a special person to me since I was 8 years old and first picked up "Tales of a 4th Grade Nothing" in the library of my elementary school back in Cleveland, Ohio. I could go on and on about all of the ways in which you've inspired and affected my life but I'm writing today with a most recent example... and a thank you. I knew from my elementary years that I wanted to be a writer. And certainly, I've always written. But I am an incredibly porous human being and the rejection letters have always felt too much to bear. I quit a million times over because, though it's quite admirable to "write for the sake of writing," I also very much want to be published. I've had some success but nearly what one might classify as a career. I have felt quite hopeless about this aspect of my life. And then... AND THEN. Then I watched your recent documentary. My visceral response was just the same as it always is when I read a "Judy Blume" book: chills, a deep knowing, the feeling of seeing aspects of myself in another. In you! And now I know, I MUST KEEP WRITING. And I WILL be published. I'm not sure for which piece of writing (I'm debating moving forward with memoir or the YA version of my story) or when... but I will. And I owe all of that inspiration to you. Thank you. You mean so so much to so so many. All my love and gratitude,
Evan Cooper xo
