Description



Book Synopsis



A poetic picture book about Judy Blume, the popular trailblazing author whose books have sold more than 80 million copies worldwide.

Judy Blume is known for fearlessly discussing topics that were once considered taboo. As a young girl, Judy was not encouraged to share her feelings, so instead she invented stories as a way to understand the world around her. Growing up Jewish, during and in the aftermath of WWII, dramatically shaped Judy's childhood. Her younger years were full of fear. Judy processed her conflicted emotions by making up stories where she could control the conflict as she worked through challenging life scenarios. These stories became the subjects of the books she later published for children, tweens, teens, and adults. This inspiring collection of poems celebrates the childhood years of Judy Blume, one of the most beloved American writers of all time.
