The Week Of Asking About The Meaning Of Life: Letter to Judy Blume

There were several children's book authors who were very important to me as a little kid, probably the same ones that were important to you: Dr. Seuss, Ezra Jack Keats, Shel Silverstein, Laura Ingalls Wilder, and Judy Blume. Sadly, most of them are no longer with us. Fortunately, one of them is: Judy Blume.

Back in my younger years, Judy Blume seemed to understand all sorts of things that I didn't. I wonder if she still does. Does Judy Blume know the meaning of life? Does Judy Blume know why we're here? Are you there, Judy? It's me, Kristen.
