andlt;Bandgt;Blubberandlt;/Bandgt; is a good name for her, the note from Caroline said about Linda. Jill crumpled it up and left it on the corner of her school desk. She didn't want to think about Linda or her dumb report on the whale just then. Jill wanted to think about Halloween. andlt;BRandgt; But Robby grabbed the note and before Linda stopped talking it had gone halfway around the room. andlt;BRandgt; That's where it all started...there was something about Linda that made a lot of kids in her fifth-grade class want to see how far they could go...but nobody, Jill least of all, expected the fun to end where it did.
About the Author
When
Judy Blume was growing up, she dreamed about becoming a cowgirl, a detective, a spy, a great actress or a ballerina -- certainly not a writer, although she always loved to read and make up stories inside her head. When she grew up, her need for storytelling didn't go away, and Judy began writing her stories down on paper.
Twenty-two books, all of them still in print, followed. Millions of readers all over the world rely on Judy Blume books to portray the difficulties and joys of growing up with honesty and humor. Judy says, "While the way we live may have changed, what's deep inside us hasn't."
Judy lives with her husband George Cooper. They have three grown children between them and one grandchild, whose first word was "book!"
