About This Book
Second grade is not turning out the way it should for Ramona Quimby. Her
dad has lost his job, her mom has found a full-time job, and her big
sister Beezus has "reached a difficult age." In her inimitable way,
Ramona decides to take charge. She practices TV commercials in hopes of
earning a million dollars, but only ends up insulting her teacher and
getting into a prickly mess with some burrs. Then she embarks on a
campaign to make her father stop smoking. Mr. Quimby manages to hold up
under all these strains, but the challenge is on for the whole family to
prove their mettle.
Once again, Beverly Cleary proves her own mettle in this touching and
hilarious Newbery Honor Book. Beloved author of over two dozen
children's books, and recipient of many awards, including another
Newbery Honor for Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and a Newbery Medal for Dear Mr.
Henshaw, Cleary's instinct for children's jumbled emotions is flawless.
Alan Tiegreen's adroit line drawings perfectly complement Cleary's
style; it's hard to imagine one without the other. (Ages 8 to 12)
