More From Judy Blume

I've Never Really Thought In Terms Of Taboos. I Think That Books Can Really Help Parents And Kids Talk Together About Difficult Subjects. I've Always Felt That Way.

Kids Should Read Whatever They Want To Read. So I'm Hoping That Just Like 15-year-olds Read "summer Sisters," I'm Hoping That They'll Read This.

I Know Where "blubber" Came From. It Came From Stories That My Daughter Told Me When She Came Home From Fifth Grade. There Was A Kid In The Class Who Was Being Bullied. We Didn't Even Call It Bullying Then, That's What's So Weird. Victimization In The Classroom. The Word Bully Was So Out, Was So Not In Use For All Those Years And Now It's Back Big Time.
