@jhernandezbooks Audiobooks in the car are our favorite thing! (My kids are 11, 9, and 7.) The Ramona Quimby series (Beverly Cleary), the Fudge series (Judy Blume - watch out for chapter 10 in Superfudge - there’s a big Santa reveal that we’re not ready for), and The Penderwicks (Jeanne Birdsall)

I forgot how good Superfudge by Judy Blume is. It’s just a lovely book. Refreshing myself on it now before I run a class that is working with it tomorrow

Kelly Fremon Craig’s ARE YOU THERE GOD ITS ME MARGARET adaptation is up there with Greta Gerwig’s LITTLE WOMEN Faithful but with really clever modern touches and impeccably cast. She should adapt Judy Blume’s SUPERFUDGE next https://t.co/8XRFpv9tI1
