MARGARET SIMON likes long hair, tuna fish, the smell of rain, and things that are pink. She's just moved from New York City to the suburbs and is anxious to fit in with her new friends. They swear they'll tell each other everything— from first bras, first kisses, first periods—everything. But some things are just too private to talk about, even with your friends, and especially when you're the new girl. Lucky for Margaret, she's got someone else to confide in ... someone who always listens.

Work Description

Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. is a 1970 novel by Judy Blume, typically categorized as a young adult book. It follows a sixth-grade girl who has grown up without a religious affiliation, due to her parents' interfaith marriage. The novel explores her quest for a single religion, while confronting typical issues faced by early adolescent girls going through puberty, such as buying her first bra, having her first period, and feeling attracted to certain boys. The novel has been frequently challenged since the 1980s for its frank discussions of sexual and religious topics.

In 2010, the book was placed on Time's list of the top 100 fiction books written in English since 1923.
