A great documentary
Oh man, a little time capsule of greatness. Watch this! The birth of Young Adult fiction, the importance of writing the way things are rather than the way someone tells you they should be - kids loved her so much. A truth teller. So relevant to today also! Now I need to go on a Judy Blume binge!
This documentary tells the arc of Judy Blume's life and writing. Very good.
Reminded me of the first time I read Are You There God, It's Me, Margaret, and I had to go on a deep house dive to find my old copy. I never knew she dabbled in adult fiction, and now I have "Wifey" on my "to read" list because of that.
I also loved the correspondence with her fans through letters. Fun stories.
If you ever read Judy Blume, this is a must watch. If you never read Judy Blume, you also should watch it so you can grasp the historical greatness of this author.
