Now that I am pursuing books for my daughter to devour (in hopes of luring her away from a Junie B. Jones who does not understand the beauty of adverbs) I remembered my favorite child character was Ramona. I hope she loves her as much as I did.

My favorite books from when I was in 7-8. How could a kid not love Ramona? Who didn't sympathize with Ramona when she became a kindergarten drop-out or when she cracked an uncooked egg over her head or when she got stuck in the mud while wearing her shiny new red rain boots?

When I read Rammona The Pestit was really funny and you never knew what Rammona would do next.The book I read is titled Rammona The Pest by Beverly C.This book is a good read of 211 pages.My opionon on this book is that anyone could enjoy it from age 8 to 80.My reaction was laughter because I was so much like Rammoana when I was youngher.The plot of this book is that Rammona is going to kindergarden and is most excited.But the problem of this story is that everyone finds her to be a bite of a pe

My oldest, who just turned 9, loves to read. For her birthday my parents got her this boxed set. I loved Ramona the Pest when I was her age but I never read the rest of the books. Don't know why. Guess I didn't know about series back then quite yet. Anyhow, Katelyn read Beezus and Ramona first and loved it. She was constantly telling me throughout the book "I know it's just a pretend story but it made me feel better to know I'm not the only one with a little sister than annoys her!" Ma

i'm not going to mess with reviewing all the beverly cleary i had to read. suffice to say that in a 2nd grade year that was rough for both me and Ms. Stewart, i was made to read the beverly cleary books as a kind of compromise (i had a boycott on with the regular reading book) and because she seemed to think that beverly cleary was all it took to set a wayward child straight.
i read about ramona and beezus quimby, henry huggins, ribsy the dog and ralph the mouse. i must have read ten More...

I thought this book was good because Ramona thinks she can not go to kindergarten unless her teacher likes her.Another reason I like the book was because it is funny. A part in the book that was funny is when she gets her feet stuck in mud.There were also some parts in the book that I did not like.I am only going to tell you one because if I tell you more then it might spoil the ending.So... here it goes... the part that I did NOT like was when Ramona would not go back to school.

I love the character Romona, she always reminds me of a young me. I think kids who have an interesting way of looking at the world is a hard thing to accomplish in a book and when little girls or sisters of little girls read them, They can feel like someone gets them.

A lady came to our 1st grade classroom and read the first chapter of Ramona. I couldn't wait to hear the rest. I made my mom take me to the library to get it. Thus began my love of reading.

We are continuing with the Ramona books. Beverly Cleary is an amazing author. Like Ramona the Pest, this book brought back childhood memories for me. I loved Ramona's emotional blow out when her school report comes home.
Mara is really transfixed by Ramona's experiences. From being scared of the dark to playing brick factory with Howie, she seems to find something to relate to. Some of it goes over her head, but much of it seems to resonate. Here are her words "What I like More...
