Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.

Blume, J. (1988). Are you there, god? It's me, margaret. London: Pan Books Ltd..

This book is great for girls in 5th or 6th grade...

Hello....Are you there??? Have you ever felt different and alone? Well you are not alone!! Margaret feels the same way!!
She is confused about what she should believe because her parents come from different religious beliefs.  Her mother is Christian and her father is Jewish.  Her grandparents play a large role in how she believes.  She frequently prays or talks to God. She chooses to study different beliefs as her independent study. It becomes a bit overwhelming for her.  She visits a church and she goes into the confessional booth.  The priest begins to talk to her and she thinks it's actually God.  Grab a copy of Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, and read how Margaret deals with her beliefs and changes she goes through.
