Beverly Cleary's Done it Again

I read Ramona Quimby, Age 8. This book was just as good as Ramona Quimby, Age 8. Ramona Quimby was just as funny as ever. From singing Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall on tin-can stilts, to launching a campaign to get her dad to stop smoking, Ramona is full of ideas. A must for all Ramona Quimby fans. If you like funny stories, this book is for you.

my dad gave me this book when i was in the second grade

i have the entire series of Ramona books, simply because my name is Ramona :) I will say though as a student of English literature these books are eonderful for the whole family to read. They deal with probamatic issues faceing families today. It also encourages young people to read more than one book!

Ramona and Her Father

Ramona and Her Father is a great book. I especially liked the part when Ramona got burrs in her hair. When they tried to get the burrs out they couldn't. I think that this book is good because it's full of adventures.
