Publisher's NoteAre You There God? Its Me, Margaret No one ever told Margaret Simon that eleven-going-on- twelve would be such a hard age. When her family moves to New Jersey, she has to adjust to life in the suburbs, a different school, and a whole new group of friends. Margaret knows she needs someone to talk to about growing up-and its not long before shes found a solution.Are you there God? Its me, Margaret. I cant wait until two oclock God. Thats when our dance starts. Do you think Ill get Philip Leroy for a partner? Its not so much that I like him as a person God, but as a boy hes very handsome. And I'd love to dance with him... just once or twice. Thank you God.
Margaret Simon has a lot of things to think about--making friends in a new school, boys and dances and parties, growing physically "normal" and choosing a religion. "With sensitivity and humor, Judy Blume has captured the joys, fears, and uncertainties that surround a girl approaching adolescence."--"Publishers Weekly." Great Stone Face Award winner.
