I think there will always be some people who feel her books are inappropriate. However, I think the majority of people in 2016 would likely not think her books were odd or inappropriate for young readers. In the last thirty years, there has been a great deal of explicit information in all forms of media: television, radio, and art. Almost nothing is shocking these days compared to the 1980s, and adults who are parenting children in 2016 were likely to have enjoyed her books as teens in the 1980s. For that reason, I do not think Judy Blume’s books would result in many people petitioning them as inappropriate.
