Newbery Medal–winning author Beverly Cleary expertly depicts the trials and triumphs of growing up through a relatable heroine who isn't afraid to be exactly who she is.
Ramona Quimby is excited to start kindergarten. No longer does she have to watch her older sister, Beezus, ride the bus to school with all the big kids. She's finally old enough to do it too!
Then she gets into trouble for pulling her classmate's boingy curls during recess. Even worse, her crush rejects her in front of everyone. Beezus says Ramona needs to quit being a pest, but how can she stop if she never was trying to be one in the first place?
Readers ages 6-12 will laugh and relate to Ramona's timeless adventures.

3. Why do you write books for children?

7. Do you like to write books?
8. What is the title of your next book?
9. What is your favorite animal?

This is important to me. I really want to know so I can get to be a famous
author and write books exactly like yours. Please send me a list of your
books that you wrote, an autographed picture and a bookmark. I need your
answer by next Friday. This is urgent!
Sincerely,
Leigh Botts
