Judy Blume has a special place in the hearts and minds of Americans. For over 2 decades, her books have answered the hard questions about growing up. But did you also know that Judy Blume is one of the most censored writers in the U.S.? Can you imagine going through childhood without ever reading her books like Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret; Blubber; Deenie; and Forever.

NCAC is honoring Judy and paying tribute to her longstanding defense of free speech and her courageous battles against all kinds of censorship.
