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,
I remember reading the Ramona books when I was five or six and they were so magical and funny! I have a hunch my mom bought them for me to help me understand more about school as I was to attend shortly. It was wonderful!When I got to the right age I then read all the Fudge books for all the same reasons.You Judy have a gift for meeting kids where they are and giving them tools they don't know they need to help out in those specific moments and throughout the remainder of their lives! I am 42 now and still remember those lessons so clearly!
Thank you for sharing your gift!

I am searching for people who live in mid-Missouri and love/want to talk about Judy Blume. If you're interested and available, please send me an email: [email protected]
You'll love this.
My son started w Beverly Cleary and I frequently reflect that I wish I'd have written to her when I was reading her books years ago. I should've written to you as well, because you had a big impact on my early reading journey. Thanks a ton!

I love your books. I am currently on Superfudge. But I am wondering, did Dribble the turtle come out in one piece?

Hi Judy!! I just finished reading “are you there god it’s me Margaret” and it’s my favorite book of all time! That book made me love reading, will you please make a second book of that?
Dear Judy,
I am writing to you as I met you once when I was a child in Bradley Gardens School in NJ. You came there and visited with my class in the mid 1960s.It was so exciting to have met you I was probably about 8 or 9 now. I'm 63 and feel so blessed. You gave me an autograph on a little piece of paper. It's been lost for many years, I live in Iowa and have a grand daughter who is in 4th grade and now is enjoying your books. I want to get her the book Hello God are you there? it's me Margaret. I would absolutely love to give Annabelle your autograph, I also have a first grade grandson, Mikey who is reading like crazy. I admire you so much. Your honesty and genuine stories are what this world needs more of , Thank you for the memories.
Sincerely
Donna

Judy, I hope this note finds you in sunny and warm Key West. It is rather cold and wet in Davidson today.
As the film was shot in and around Charlotte, NC and especially in Davidson, I am hoping the distributor will allow me to play it in my theatre "Our Town Cinemas", Davidson, NC. It is only February and we are getting request to buy tickets now.

Hello Judy!!
This message is about 40 years overdue! I'm a magazine feature writer and I credit you with being my childhood inspiration, both on my website (www.carmensheabrown.com) and my Facebook page. Here is an excerpt from a recent LinkedIn conversation, where I wrote: "She was part of the reason why I started making up my own stories as a kid and would tell people I wanted to be an author when I grew up. Of course now I focus on nonfiction, but that's where my passion for reading and writing really took off. The one that really resonated with me as a child was "It's Not the End of the World," about a young girl whose parents were divorcing, because mine divorced around that same time. I've still yet to read "Iggie's House" and "Tiger Eyes." Although her books were targeted toward children and young adults, sometimes it's fun to go back and put yourself in that time in your life and "get inspired" all over again!" I'm so glad you're still out there doing your thing and that I can keep up with your happenings on here. I hope I can meet you in person sometime. Thank you again!!

Hi Judy!!!
I am so thrilled to have your books in my life. I struggle with fitting in. Although I have my religion figured out, and don't have scoliosis, or an annoying 2 year old brother, or a thief for a best friend,I still Have a hard time wondering will I ever bloom? I think it's weird of me to be like this and was wondering if you ever felt that way. I have found your books to be helpful in guiding me towards my creative inner writer, although she isn't as good as you. I hope you take the time to read my letter.
your devoted reader,
Annabelle

Dear Ms. Blume,
As a young woman, I read your books and your words helped me understand who I was emotionally, mentally, and physically.
As an adult, they still guide me.
Thank you for your generous gift of sharing them.
PS- I'm still waiting for the Freckle Juice recipe to work 🙂

Hello, Ms. Blume,
While in elementary school, I used to write letters to God. Then one day, I visited the school library and ran across your book, Are You There God, It's Me, Margaret. I am forever grateful that I did. I was not the only one writing letters to God, even if it was a character in a book. Your book made my already spiritual relationship with our Lord and Savior complete. I want you to know what it means to me and others for you to have written this book and now a soon-to-be movie. I am so glad I'm here to witness this in my lifetime.
Thank you,
A reader of your book.

Hi Judy,
I only read a handful of your books in the early 80s, but I love you so much.
You fostered in me a lifelong love of books and stories, a gift I could never hope to repay.
Also, 40 years later, I still say to myself, "oooh dark,"when the lights go down at the movies.
Thank you so much for all you have done.
Jason
