THANK YOU, JUDY BLUME

It is the fiftieth anniversary of the book, Are you there God, It’s Me Margaret, by Judy Blume. I read this book when I was ten or eleven which rewinds the days of my life to 1975/76. This book was the first prepubescent book I read that made me realize that self doubt was actually a normal feeling and I was not alone. And for some reason the concept of not being alone led me to not feeling alone and this gave me a sense of comfort.
