Best-selling young-adult author Judy Blume, along with filmmaker Lawrence Blume and producer Jane Startz, have pacted with Walt Disney Studios to develop and produce films based on her books. Among Blume's long list of books are such young-adult classics as Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, Blubber, Superfudge and Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great. Her books have sold 75 million copies worldwide and have been translated into 26 languages. Several of Blume's titles have been adapted for television, such as Forever, Fudge-a-Mania and Sheila, which was directed by Lawrence Blume, who is Judy Blume's son.
