Margaret Simon can't wait to grow up. Her new friends swear they'll tell each other everything—first bras, first kisses, first periods, everything. But some things are just too private to talk about, even with your friends, especially when you're the new girl at school and trying to fit in. 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.
