A lot of people have told me that her books are just children's books, but don't you feel that a whole lot of the themes in her books are a little too mature to just be children's books? I mean, I absolutely love them! They're kind of like a slap of reality, and shows puberty in a very comical way. I have been in love with all her books since elementary school, and I still love them. So whoever tells me that I'm reading books that are a little too "childish", I guess I should just show them some excerpts...

Very Happy, Judy Blume remains to be my 2nd favorite author- next to JK Rowling who will always keep her place as number 1.

I haven't read a Judy Blume book in at least ten years, but I loved her books as a child. I'll have to pick one up one of these days.

Oh, I still love Judy Blume!

She actually did write some adult books, meaning some of her books are displayed in the regualr adult fiction section in most bookstores. SO if you think that her children books are mature... imagine what her adult books contain...

I loved Judy Blume in Middle and Elementary school!

All my friends and I would read them. I don't think they're childish at all, i haven't read them in a while, but i think i'd still be interested in most of them now.
