I still get a little thrill whenever I see my daughter walk into the house with a Judy Blume book. Back in the before times, when I was just a young kid in Texas, there was a bit of a dust-up about Judy Blume’s book, Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret, which resulted in my school librarian banning all Judy Blume books. It was my earliest experience of censorship (and its limitations), but it wouldn’t be my last.
