Please Note: Some list this book as number 6 in the series and others list this book as number 7 (number six is a compilation of previous books). This is the Ramona book I read in the first grade and it turned me into a reader for life. Since I wasn't all that enthused about the previous books (th...
Meh. I got more of the Ramona I loved but Mrs. Quimby was practically a no-show in her own book. Ramona is 7.5 years old and her feelings and thoughts are deeper reaching, yet she still retains her lovely spirit and realism. Beezus is still feeling the chaos that is early puberty, but once again I r...
Now we are getting to the Ramona that I fell in (platonic) love with when I was a young reader. Gone is the brat, now we get a real girl who just wants to be happy being her imperfect six year old, second grade self. Her father left much to be desired; dude was an emotional and mentally absentee par...
Much better than the first two books in the series. Here I got glimpses of the Ramona I admired when I was younger. Less bratty and more self-assured, Ramona in this book is coming into her own person (she is six in this book). I like that Beezus actually backs Ramona up when the clueless grown ups ...
Without Beezus standing in for the reader to call out some of Ramona's outlandish behavior, the reader is left with characters that coddled Ramona and allows her to throw temper tantrum after temper tantrum until she gets her way. It isn't cute or funny, just painful. Ramona is egotistical, borderin...
The first book in the Ramona Quimby series was really more like the first book in the Beatrice Quimby series (which never happened). Ramona is just four years old, Beezus is nine and the two sisters are very different in temperament and personality, leading to untold conflict. I felt for Beezus beca...
Ramona Quimby, Age 8 is such a fun book! It is sure to have every eight year old hooked because of it's relatability and humor. In this book, poor Ramona just cannot catch a break. Not only does she have to adjust to a changing home-life, but she has to endure some seriously embarrassing situations ...
The Mouse and the Motorcycle is a book about a mouse named Ralph who longs for adventure, but doesn't have much of a chance until a little boy with a toy motorcycle moves into the hotel where Ralph and his family live. The little mouse cannot resist the toy motorcycle, and embarks on an adventure th...
Any and all Ramona Quimby books would be, in my opinion, a huge benefit for teachers to share with their class. After having the Ramona books read to me growing up, I think these books would be most suitable for a second grade classroom. Beverly Cleary does a wonderful job of introducing readers to ...
I read this book in one of my classes around 3-5th grade and I remember loving it. It would be another great book to read before watching the movie. ages 8-12
