Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret

by Judy Blume

Judy Blume's iconic novel 'Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret' follows the poignant journey of Margaret Simon, a girl on the brink of adolescence. After moving from the busy streets of New York City to the quiet suburbs of New Jersey, almost twelve-year-old Margaret finds herself in the throes of change. She grapples with making new friends and fits in by joining a secret club where the talks turn to personal matters such as boys and the mysteries of puberty. Amidst her quest for belonging, Margaret wrestles with questions of religion, torn between her father's Jewish heritage and her mother's Christian background. But Margaret's inner world is rich with spiritual curiosity, and she has a unique confidant—God, to whom she shares all her thoughts and concerns. Judy Blume's masterful narrative invites readers to experience Margaret's heartfelt dialogue with God and the universal struggles of growing up with humor, sincerity, and an ever-present sense of discovery.
