corning-of-age
classics for
children, the
best-selling
author is out
with "Summer

MOLLY WOULFE
Special to The Jewish News

udy Blume turned 60 this
year, but the best-selling
Jewish author identifies with
the grade-schoolers who have
peopled, and bonded to, her coming-
of-age classics since 1970.
Among the serious issues she's tack-
led over the years: being the child of
an intermarried (Jewish and gentile)
couple in Are You There God? It's Me,
Margaret (which also deals with men-
struation); divorce (It's Not the End of
the World); teen sex (Forever); and
death in the shadow of the Holocaust
(Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself.
The Nantucket-based writer, whose

works have been translated into 20
languages, recently released her third
adult novel, Summer Sisters
(Delacourre Press), which is near the
top of the best-seller lists.

Q: Your new book is your third
adult novel, but you've written 19
books for kids. So it is safe to catego-
rize you as a children's author?
A: Judy No Category That's my
category If I had to choose, I suppose
I would choose to have written about
young people because I identify so
strongly with them.

Q: What's your mental age?
A: Twelve. I identify with that —
an about-to-make-a-passage age.

Q: Summer Sisters is pretty
sophisticated fare for a 12-year-old
— the tale of a rich girl/poor girl
