Never read this as a girl. I can see where it would be a comforting read for girls who are going through puberty. I think it might also feel a little dated for current pre-teens.

My sex education is finally complete. I've now read Judy Blume's ARE YOU THERE, GOD? IT'S ME, MARGARET (1970). I'm a good fifty years late, I know, but I found it to be funny and charming, as well as informative. Thank you, Judy. And my children (now 55, 52, and 45) thank you too. You ROCK!

I've recently been revisiting Blumes work, and something that is just consistently holding them back for me (even if I remembering loving the book as a kid) is the constant fatphobia. I didn't remember it being so bad in this one but at one point it just ramps up and develops a really shitty narrative on 12-13 year-old girls bodies. Like, part of the "happy ever after" aspect is tied to Stephanie losing weight she gained? Her mom sends her with a boiled egg and carrots for lunch while trying to make her do exercise videos? Honestly the other topics and discussions in here are pretty solid, but I definitely wouldn't love putting this in the hands of the target age reader because of the body image aspects.… (mais)

I read this once when I was younger and I must have trauma-blocked the turtle part from my mind because when I read that scene it all came flooding back.
