SummaryEverything I Needed to Know About Being a Girl I Learned
from Judy Blume by Julie Kenner, Jennifer O'Connell, Meg
Cabot, Beth Kendrick, & Cara Lockwood and more...
"I wonder if Judy Blume really knows how many girls'
lives she affected. I wonder if she knows that at least one
of her books made a grown woman finally feel like she'd been
a normal girl all along. . . ."
Whether laughing to tears reading Otherwise Known as
Sheila the Great or clamoring for more unmistakable "me
too!" moments in Are You There God? It's Me,
Margaret, girls all over the world have been touched by
Judy Blume's poignant coming-of-age stories. Now, in this
anthology of essays, twenty-four notable female authors
write straight from the heart about the unforgettable novels
that left an indelible mark on their childhoods and still
influence them today. After growing up from Tales of a
Fourth Grade Nothing into Smart Women, these
writers pay tribute, through their reflections and most
cherished memories, to one of the most beloved authors of
all time.
