(It’s such a timeless story that a film adaptation was also released last month.)īlume’s work is immortal, but now, a new documentary seeks to cement her legacy as the most beloved children’s book author of all time and the bona fide queen of growing up: Judy Blume Forever was released this month on Prime Video. Growing up is really hard, and for generations, Blume has been there to make it better, with books like Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret singlehandedly doing the work to demystify things like puberty and sex. “Masturbation! Let’s raise our hands if we masturbate." She holds her arm up with an unselfconscious grin on her face, swaying back and forth like a gleeful hype woman, in electric blue rimmed glasses and a mossy sheer blouse: “Everybody!” “Let’s say it together,” Judy Blume reads from Dear God, It’s Me, Margaret and glances up at the camera.
