ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret by Judy Blume tells the story of Margaret Simon, a young girl who moves from New York City to suburban New Jersey at the age of almost twelve. The narrative focuses on Margaret's experiences as she navigates the challenges of adolescence, including friendships, boys, and physical development, such as getting her first period. Margaret is also on a quest to discover her religious identity. She tries to understand her parents' lack of religious affiliation and questions whether she should identify as Jewish, Christian, or neither. The story explores Margaret's search for normalcy and self-acceptance as she tries to understand what it means to grow up. She is influenced by her friends, especially Nancy, and is trying to understand her feelings, her body, and the world around her.
