Beverly Cleary
This is the first title in the hugely popular series about Ramona Quimby. Ramona's sister, Beezus, tries very hard to be patient, but how many nine-year-old girls have to put up with their embarrassing, annoying little four-year-old sisters? Sisters are supposed to love each other, but pesky little Ramona just doesn't seem very lovable to Beezus. Beverly Cleary is one of America's most popular authors and has won many prestigious awards, including the American Library Association's Laura Ingalls Wilder Award. Beezus and Ramona is being published to coincide with the publication of the lastest Ramona title, Ramona's World.

"DNF @ 50 percent<br/><br/>Look, I adore Beezus and her endless patience for her little sister, but Romona and literally everybody else in this book? I despised them. I get that Romona is a kid so I'm more lenient towards her, but her parents? It's like they don't know how to raise a kid. Don't be too hard on your kids, but teach them how not to be a public nuisance. It's a shame because I loved this book when I was younger and vividly remember being upset when I found my public library didn't have the sequel(s) to this book. <br/><br/>"

"Beverly Cleary wrote this in 1955, and I was surprised my Kindergarten students could relate to it so well in 2012. This was the first chapter book I have read to Kindergarten students, and I was presently surprised. They loved it."
