Were they both ready for a love that was forever?Katherine and Michael meet at a New Year's Eve party. They're attracted to each other, they grow to love each other. And once they've decided their love is forever, they make love. It's the beginning of an intense and exclusive relationship, with a future all planned. Until Katherine's parents insist that she and Michael put their love to the test with a summer apart... "Forever" is written for an older age group than Judy Blume's other novels for children. It caused a storm of controversy when it was first published because of its explicit sexual content. It was a book ahead of its time-and remains, after 25 years in print, a teenage best-seller.
America's No.1 children's author was born in the New Jersey suburbs - often the setting of her books. When her two children started going to school, she took a course in creative writing at her old university. She has now delighted two generations of readers with her stories (19 books in all) for ages 4 to 17 years. For teenagers, Judy writes about real life issues - family stress and pressures, what happens when your parents divorce, the problems of sexual awakening, bereavement - with knowledge, sensitivity and humour.
