Summary: Ramona brought me up...
Review: I loved Ramona SOOOOO much. I wanted to be her. I read every book in the series probably 6 times (and Ramona Forever, probably about 12...) Recently I started my 5 year old cousin on the Ramona books (she reminds me so much of Ramona - funny and wild and creative and cool)- of course Ramona the Pest - and she loved it. I must say that reading it aloud it seemed a bit dated (and certainly was not as exciting, or as good, as Ramona Forever, which I read recently to make sure it was as spectacular as I remembered it). Still, I think that Ramona is a GREAT friend to have growing up - and I still consider her a friend (and idol :) This book - though not the pinnacle of the series - is a great way to start kids off (and is probably easier for a 5 or 6 year old to associate with than an 18 year old).

Summary: This book is great!
Review: I read a theme in school about Beverly Cleary and we had to pick a Beverly Cleary book for a Book Report. I picked Ramona the Pest. I think I picked the best Beverly Cleary book out of them all. Some parts are hilarious. Others are kind of weird. Ramona is a girl who always goes around and teases people the way my little sister annoys me. If you have a little sister who annoys you, you will love this book.

Summary: Ramona the Pest
Review: I read this book several times since I was 8. Beverly Cleary gives a realistic picture of a 5-year-old girl who is misunderstood. To onlookers, she is a pest, but she doesn't mean to be. It is funny as well as real and is one of my favorite books. From Ramona trying to kiss Davy to her affection for Miss Binney and her anger towards Susan, the girl with the curls that Ramona loves to "boing", this book is one of Beverly Cleary's best yet. The ages for the book are 9 to 12, but I also recommend this book for adults who write for kids or are around kids a lot. It is enjoyable for all.

Summary: My first chapter book!
Review: I read this when I was 8. I got it as a Ramona box set from my great grandmother for Christmas. I will never forget that. It was a wonderful Christmas spent in sunny southern California. I fell in love with Ramona and the book inspired me to start writing stories of my own. I also could identify with what Ramona goes thru cause school kind of ruined me as a child. I found this book very deep and every chapter an adventure. This was the first chapter book I ever read.

Summary: The Greatest Book Every Written By Beverly Cleary!!!
Review: I think this is the best of the series, and I read it from the library, then bought it. I now have the WHOLE Ramona series TWICE!!! Once in paperback, and once in hardback. I think the whole Ramona series is GREAT! It starts with Beezus And Ramona. Write me for any details. It's best to read them in order!!

Summary: Now she'd be called a "spirited child"
Review: I wasn't very fond of Ramona when I was little. As a bit of a nerd from the very beginning, I just couldn't relate to Ramona's exuberance that always got her into trouble, and I more or less thought of her as a bad girl. But I still carried memories of the book with me into adulthood -- especially Ramona's enchanting way of writing "Q." Fast-forward to parenting a spirited daughter. I re-read the book and decided that I absolutely had to share it with my daughter. I now see Ramona in a whole new light; as the author herself states, Ramona never (well, rarely) really means to be naughty. Most adults just don't understand her -- the way she cannot resist the temptation to boing a beautiful curl, her need for shiny new girls' boots and the glory of stamping through the mud the first day she wears them, her need to know that her teacher loves her. My five-year-old was indeed caught up in Ramona's story, frequently asking me to read another chapter when I had finished one. Ramona became so real to her that she covered her ears when it was clear that Ramona was headed for trouble -- she couldn't bear to listen to the consequences. I may have been too much of a goody-goody to fully appreciate the book earlier, but I certainly enjoy it now and am glad that my daughter enjoys it, too.
