More quotes by Judy Blume
Some characters become your friends for life. That's how it was for me with Betsy-Tacy.
Judy Blume
Snoring keeps the monsters away.
Judy Blume
The best books come from someplace inside. You don't write because you want to, but because you have to.
Judy Blume
Determination and hard work are as important as talent.
Judy Blume
Librarians save lives by handing the right book at the right time to a kid in need.
Judy Blume
The parent reads the book. The kid reads the book and then they can talk about the characters instead of talking about themselves. You know there's a connection even if you don't talk about it when you read the same books.
Judy Blume
It was a such a surprise, such an absolute shocking surprise to me to not know what you're doing and to find out that this thing that you don't even know how to do, that you're sure you don't know how to do, speaks to so many people and touches so many people in some way.
Judy Blume

Judy Blume
How we handle our fears will determine where we go with the rest of our lives.
Judy Blume
Heavy petting, that was fun! That was good. And frankly, you know I wish kids would go back to it. It's very satisfying. And it's not as scary. So many girls, you know this. I mean they are having what we call sex. Right? They're having intercourse. They don't want to, they don't get anything out of it.
Judy Blume
Margaret was just my truth. It was what I knew to be true about sixth grade.
Judy Blume
Why are we acting as if we're angry. Are we angry?
Judy Blume
Things change…things happen…things you can’t even imagine when you’re young and full of hope.
Judy Blume
It's not so much that I like him as a person God, but as a boy he's very handsome.
Judy Blume
I was Little Miss Perfect. That's where all the secrets come in, because you know damn well you are not perfect, but you think your parents want you to be. And so you pretend.
Judy Blume
First of all I can only focus on one creative project at a time. I wish I could focus on two, because I really only write.
Judy Blume
I'm lucky that so many children visit my website. At least I get to talk with them that way.
Judy Blume
The child from 9 to 12 interests me very much. And so, those were the years that I like to write about, when I'm writing.
Judy Blume
I wanted to write honest books for kids because I didn't have those when I was a kid.
Judy Blume
Kids should read whatever they want to read. So I'm hoping that just like 15-year-olds read Summer Sisters, I'm hoping that they'll read this.
