About Beverly Cleary

Beverly Cleary is one of America's most beloved authors. As a child, she struggled with reading and writing. But by third grade, after spending much time in her public library in Portland, Oregon, she found her skills had greatly improved. Before long, her school librarian was saying that she should write children's books when she grew up.Instead she became a librarian. When a young boy asked her, ""Where are the books about kids like us?"" she remembered her teacher's encouragement and was inspired to write the books she'd longed to read but couldn't find when she was younger. She based her funny stories on her own neighborhood experiences and the sort of children she knew. And so, the Klickitat Street gang was born!Mrs. Cleary's books have earned her many prestigious awards, including the American Library Association's Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, presented to her in recognition of her lasting contribution to children's literature. Dear Mr. Henshaw won the Newbery Medal, and Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and Ramona and Her Father have been named Newbery Honor Books. Her characters, including Beezus and Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, and Ralph, the motorcycle-riding mouse, have delighted children for generations.

He barely gets a speaking......more

4.5 stars. I love Ramona! The boys and I have been listening to these books on tape in the car and they are so classic. We are all laughing out loud at times, and I smiled through practically all of Ramona Forever. Such a sweet story of growing up. Beverly Cleary has such insight when describing Ram......more

Goodreads review by Phillip on February 12, 2012

I have loved "Romona the Pest" since the first time it was read to us by our teacher in either Kindergarten or First Grade. Romona is as real a kid as you can get. I felt for her and still feel for her embarrassment as she sits through the pledge of allegiance and other class activities because the......more

It was fun to listen to a childhood favorite and share that with my kids on a road trip. Ramona is such a curious girl and always misunderstanding things. Therefore, she's always getting herself into scrapes.......more
