Have you read her books?
I'm a little older than most of the posters here, so I read her when I was kid. (The Andy Warhol discussion made me wonder what other cultural references are lost). |

I read a lot of her books as a kid! Tales of a 4th Grade Nothing was one of my favorites!

Her books used to be banned because of the issues she wrote about. |

Are you there God, it's me Jeepchic.
I've read just about everything she's ever wrote. Judy Blume and Beverly Cleary ruled my reading world as a child/young adult |

She actually made me want to become a writer. (Her and Stephen King!). It's cute that she's a fan of Harry Potter:

Heard of her. My mom got one or two of her books for me when I was younger, but I never read them or any of her books.

Loved her books when I was younger. Her adult fiction is ok too...I love "Summer Sisters" but was not thrilled with the others I read.
I never read Forever...I don't think? |

Is Cleary the one who wrote the Ramona Quimby books? That was CRACK to me as a kid.
I wish I still loved to read. It's so sad to look back on how much I used to LOVE reading books. And now, it bores me so. |

I loved reading her Fudge books.
I also loved Cleary's Ramona books. My absolute favorites as a kid. |
