>Hello P (P???),
I loved Judy Blume when I was a kid, especially Tales Of  A
Forth-Grade-Nothing and its sequels. Doesn't anyone in England read any
Blume? In Holland no-one's heard of her, but I can't think of any Dutch
writer who is so in touch with modern youth. And Blume's books were written
in the seventies and they're still not old-fashioned!
