Judy Blume, whether writing for adults, young adults, adolescents or primary school children, is a wonder. Her essential core style is the same. Her style is one of didactic narrative In other words, she uses story telling to get her message across. She is a first rate story teller using humor (where appropriate) to emphasis her points. True she's been criticized for being "issue led" which is farcical when one considers that she more or less invented the genre.

I don't think I'm exaggerating if I say that Judy Blume, virtually single handed, changed the style and nature of writing for children and young people in a way that not even Enid Blyton was able to achieve, but I'm sure that's because Enid Blyton didn't live in the age of instant communication.

I wouldn't worry about what is Judy Blume's style if you enjoy reading her books. That's enough. If you want to know what makes her books so readable, well, that's her talent.
