Some people may have difficulty finding humor in the issue of censorship. Thankfully, celebrated author Judy Blume isn't one of them. Nor were the many actors, comedians, authors, and supporters who gathered at City Winery in New York City on October 19 for "A Night of Comedy with Judy Blume & Friends." Presented by the National Coalition Against Censorship, the event was both a celebration of the coalition's 35th anniversary and an opportunity to honor Blume, who has actively battled censorship of her own books since the 1980s.

Maud Hart Lovelace’s books were old-fashioned even when they started coming out in 1940. In ten novels, Lovelace followed turn-of-the-century best friends Betsy Ray and Tacy Kelly from age 5 to their respective weddings. Think Serena and Blair of Gossip Girl with lower hemlines and smaller budgets.

Guess Again looks so cute!
I bought Guess Again on your recommendation to give to my niece and nephew (now 2 and 4) for Christmas last year. I just wanted to let you know that my sister tells me that it is a current favourite (especially for my nephew)!
