This book takes an expansive look at Judy Blume&rsquo\;s life\, work\, and cultural impact\, focusing on her most ic onic&mdash\;and controversial&mdash\;young adult novels\, from \;Are Y ou There God? It&rsquo\;s Me\, Margaret \;to \;Blubber. \;
\nEveryone knows Judy Blume.
\nHer books have garnered her fans o f all ages for decades and have sold tens of millions of copies. But why w ere people so drawn to them? And why are we still talking about them now i n the 21st century?
\nIn \;The Genius of Judy\, her remarkable s tory is revealed as never before\, beginning with her as a mother of two s earching for purpose outside of her home in 1960s suburban New Jersey. The books she wrote starred regular children with genuine thoughts and proble ms. But behind those deceptively simple tales\, Blume explored the pillars of the growing women&rsquo\;s rights movement\, in which girls and women were entitled to careers\, bodily autonomy\, and fulfilling relationships.
