Are You There God? It's me, Margaret

For my next outside reading I chose to re-read the book "Are You There God? It's me, Margaret" by one of my favorite children's literature authors, Judy Bloom. This book is all about a young girl who moves to a new town and is beginning to go through puberty. Throughout the book, Margaret faces issues such as buying her first bra and learning how to talk to boys. The main conflict in the book deals with Margaret and her relationship with God. She grew up without religion and has one christian parent and one jewish parent. In the end, Margaret learns to listen to God and herself and this should always lead her in the right direction. I loved this book as a young girl and I still love it today!
