About this listen

Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself, is an insightful, historical story about imagination, dreams and starting somewhere new. From Judy Blume, the bestselling author of Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.

Sally J. Freedman loves making up stories – stories in which she is always the star of her own lavish film spectaculars. But when her close-knit family is separated because of her brother's illness, even Sally's daydreams are not enough to comfort her.

With her beloved father left behind in New Jersey, a winter in the Florida sunshine seems gloomy. The cramped and dingy flat can't compare with her comfortable home, and her new classmates are nothing like her old friends.

Worst of all, it is 1947 – and Sally is convinced that Adolf Hitler is alive and living in Miami Beach . . .

A good story, and of interest for the insights into the author's own background, family and origin story. Not a favourite for me, as Judy Blume novels go. Don't remember reading this one as a kid.

Good story
