Judy Blume Essentials (Boxed Set): Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret; Blubber; Deenie; Iggie's House; It's Not the End of the World; Then Again, Maybe I Won't; Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself

I was very excited to find this box set for Christmas for my 9 year old granddaughter. These books were awesome when I was growing up. I hope she enjoys them as much as I did. Seven books. Worth the price!

Very good books, makes a great gift, takes me back to childhood reading these books

My 11 year old loves Judy’s books. This has been a great addition to her library. The set arrived in perfect condition!

ten year old grand daughter loved them

Holy moly. These books. All these books. As a genexr I did have a human mom and she was lovely. But we all know today (thanks tiktok) were feral and independent by age 11. Judy was there though! Thank GOD. Between her and Amelia Bedelia, I was pretty set in the role model and guidance department. That was until i picked up Go Ask Alice and Helter Skelter in 6th grade....

These were a great gift!

Judy Blume writes good stories for all ages

Judy Blume has a knack for weaving tales that address the angst and joys of being an adolescent in a credible and engaging manner. I've been a long-time fan and now my tween has discovered the joys of reading Blume's adolescent novels. This boxed set contains the following novels Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret Blubber Deenie Iggie’s House It’s Not the End of the World Then Again, Maybe I Won’t Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself All of the stories portray protagonists that deal with issues such as the pangs of adolescence, family troubles, and more. Tweens and teens will easily relate to these stories, and the writing is accessible, as the author writes in a fluid and engaging manner. There may be some profanity in the stories, but relevant within the context so I would advise parents be forewarned about this. Other than that, I would recommend these novels to Grades 5 and up.
