O knihe

Literature Review from the year 2015 in the subject Sociology - Children and Youth, grade: 99.0, Winthrop University, course: Children's Literature, language: English, abstract: This paper sets out to examine the controversial issues of the book "Are You there God? It's me Margaret", and the level suitable for reading. The book by Judy Blume (1970), takes on a humorous and insightful journey through the pubescent stage of twelve year old Margaret Simon's life. We hear all her private thoughts about what goes on in her life and what she would rather happen in her life. While Blume's book, is an profound and comical read for pre-teen girls, I believe that students in fifth grade and higher should be able to read the book.

While the language of the book is simple for the reading level of a third grader (Titlewave), the content is too mature for them and should be selected for older, preteen students who understand and are in the midst of going through those stages in life.
