#JudyBlume's 'Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret' has stood the "test of time." And now, moms and daughters are recalling how significant Blume's book has been in their lives. For many, it was the first novel they read where they could relate to the main character's problems.⁠
⁠
One woman who remembers first hearing about Margaret when she was in fifth grade because "word got around that the girl gets her period in the book." So, she bought copies for herself and friends to refresh their memories in time for the movie.⁠
⁠
“What matters is Margaret and her relationships — with her friends, family and God. She's observing. She's figuring stuff out. That's a comfort to girls, or boys, of any age, during any age,” another says.⁠
⁠
A mom of a two and five year-old got Blume to sign a copy of the book so she can give it to her kids later on. She added, "I think it's going to be just as impactful for them down the road as it is for kids who come and see this film and for parents who read the book.⁠
