Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret
(Religion, Coming-of-Age)

For Margaret, everything is different this year. She's just moved from New York City to the suburbs and is anxious to fit in with her new friends--Nancy, Gretchen, and Janie. When they form a secret club to talk about private subjects like boys, bras, and getting their first periods, Margaret is happy to belong. But in Farbrook, everybody joins the Y or the Jewish Community Center. Margaret doesn't have a religion, so what's she supposed to do? Suddenly life is very confusing. Maybe it's all part of growing up, but Margaret could really use some answers.

Blubber
(Overweight)

Jill reads yet another note going around the classroom about Linda, the fat girl: "Blubber is a good name for her."  Many classmates want to see how far the constant teasing can go. But nobody, especially Jill, expects the fun to end where it does.

Deenie
Physical Disability - Scoliosis

When Deenie sees the brace for the first time, she wants to scream, Forget it... I'm never going to wear that thing. Everyone will know. Everyone! But the words won't come out. And Deenie, beautiful Deenie, who everyone says should be a model, is stuck wearing a brace from her neck to her hips. For four years-or longer.  How will she ever face the hard times ahead?

Forever
(Sexual Intercourse)

A convincing tale of first love--a love that seems strong and true enough to last forever. Katherine loves Michael so much, in fact, that she's willing to lose her virginity to him, and, as the months go by, it gets harder and harder for her to imagine living without him. However, something happens when they are separated for the summer: Katherine begins to have feelings for another guy. What does this mean about her love for Michael? What does this mean about love in general? What does "forever" mean, anyway?

Freckle Juice
(Physical Appearance)

Nicky has freckles -- they cover his face, his ears, and the whole back of his neck. Once, sitting behind him in class, Andrew counted eighty-six of them, and that was just a start! If Andrew had freckles like Nicky, his mother would never know if his neck was dirty.  One day after school, Andrew works up enough courage to ask Nicky where he got his freckles. And, as luck would have it, who should overhear him but giggling, teasing Sharon. She offers Andrew her secret freckle juice recipe -- for fifty cents. That's a lot of money, but Andrew is desperate. At home, he carefully mixes the strange combination of ingredients. Then the unexpected happens.

Fudge-A-Mania
(Siblings)

Fudge Hatcher--the five-year-old human hurricane--is back for more antics as he makes sure there is never a dull moment at the family's summer rental house. His latest plan is to marry his brother Peter's sworn enemy, Sheila Tubman. It's going to be an unforgettable trip for both families.

Here's to You, Rachel Robinson

Rachel's a straight-A student, on every teacher's wish list of Natural Helpers. But she grinds her teeth at night and dreads dinnertime--now that her troublemaker brother has been expelled from boarding school and is home. Matters are complicated by Rachel's crush on his tutor, her older sister's acne problem, and her friendships with Stephanie and Alison. Companion to Just as long as We're Together.

Iggie's House
(Racial Prejudice)

When Grove Street gets its first black family, Winnie is a welcoming party of one.

It's Not the End of the World
(Divorce)

Karen Newman can't believe it when her father moves out. How could her parents do this? Don't they know they belong together?  Somehow Karen has to get her mom and dad to talk to each other face-to-face. Maybe then they'll realize divorce is a mistake. But can she think of a plan soon-and one that works?

Letters to Judy: What Kids Wish

In Letters to Judy, she answers the questions and worries that concern parents and kids most.

The One in the Middle Is the Green Kangaroo

Lately second-grader Freddy Dissel has that left-out kind of feeling. Life can be lonely when you're the middle kid in the family and you feel like "the peanut butter part of a sandwich," squeezed between an older brother and a little sister. But now for the first time it's Freddy's chance to show everyone how special he is and, most of all, prove it to himself!

Otherwise Known As Sheila the Great

Sheila manages to survive the episodic trials of the summer--the beginners' swimming test, the revelations of her friends' Slam Books, even the presence of the dog who goes with the Tubmans' rented summer home....Sheila's ongoing crisis of image is as easy to identify with as it is to laugh at.

The Pain and the Great One

An eight-year-old girl, "The Great One," and her six-year-old brother, "The Pain," state their cases about each other and who is best loved by their parents.

Starring Sally J. Freedman As Herself

Superfudge

Peter Hatcher, a 12-year-old boy, learns that his mother is going to have a baby and that the whole family will be moving to Princeton for a year. He's worried about starting sixth grade in a strange place and going to the same school as his younger brother, Fudge. But Peter is much more concerned about this new baby turning out to be just as big a nuisance as Fudge is now.

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing

Living with his little brother, Fudge, makes Peter Hatcher feel like a fourth grade nothing. Whether he's throwing a temper tantrum in a shoe store, smearing mashed potatoes on the walls at Hamburger Heaven, or scribbling all over Peter's homework, Fudge is never far from trouble. How can Peter get his parents to listen to him for a change? And don't forget Dribble.

Then Again, Maybe I Won't
