"Everything I Needed to Know About Being a Girl I Learned From Judy Blume" Edited By Jennifer O'Connell

I need to start out by telling you that I don't think I've ever read a single Judy Bloom book, but I still enjoyed this book. After reading this book, I decided I should have read them and maybe I will go back and read them now. They are written for a younger audience, but so many women have been influenced by her books – I feel like I'm missing out! It seems like if I had read some of the books as a teen, I would have worked through some of my young-person issues faster than I did on my own. I recommend this book to any mother with young daughters because if they read this, they'll see the importance of reading these (once) controversial books.
