[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had my 10-year-old start reading it and she loves it! I told her the book had been [b]banned[/b] a lot and that made her even more excited to read it. [/quote] I had never read it even though I probably around the age of the original target audience. Saw the NBC Judy Blume interview and she was so excited about the movie, that I decided to read the book that day. I can see why people like it but don't really get why it was banned at times. Just because of mentioning periods?[/quote] Yes - periods, and boobs/bras. Sexual feelings. Also religion- her mom was Christian and her dad Jewish so they decided to let Margaret decide for herself which religion to be? That was questioned by many parents as unsuitable for children to read.[/quote]
