Boys reading Blume.

From the Guardian:

Salvation came in the shape of Judy Blume. Within a year I had read most of her books - quite remarkable, on reflection, given that these were works aimed largely at young American girls and whose covers advertised this fact. This was distinctly girly material, but I just couldn't get enough of Blume. Her instructive novels provided an alternative education about subjects which just weren't being taught at school.

Superfudge was my gateway drug to Blume, because it wasn't so clearly aimed at girls as her others. But it was so good that I kept reading until I'd read them all--excluding Summer Sisters, of course!
