Ramona Quimby, Age 8 (Avon Camelot Books) Review
The book, Ramona Quimby,Age 8, is about Ramona's third grade school life. The main character, Ramona, had a terrible first day of school. She lost her pink eraser and fought with a boy named Danny. Her teacher Mrs. Whaley thought she was a nuisance. Ramona had many problems in third grade. I had a similar experience like Ramona because I am 8 years old and she is 8 years old. We are also both in third grade. We both had our first day of third grade but mine was better! When I read this story, I felt that I needed to be polite to adults because Ramona always got in trouble and Mrs. Whaley thinks she is a nuisance. Also, my favorite part is when Ramona presents her book report to the class and when she sings "Meow, meow, meow, meow" while she does her book report. I like it when she sings because I like that song! I would recommend this book to a girl that is 8 years old and in third grade. I think they will like it because this book is perfect for them. I think a girl that is 8 years old will like it because it will be fun for her to read. SP

Ramona Quimby, Age 8 (Avon Camelot Books) Overview
Ramona feels quite grown-up taking the bus by herself, helping big sister Beezus make dinner, and trying hard to be nice to pesky Willa Jean after school. Turning eight years old and entering the first grade can do that to a girl. So how can her teacher call her a nuisance?
Ramona Quimby, Age 8 (Avon Camelot Books) Specifications
From the first day of third grade, when Ramona Quimby meets her eventual nemesis Yard Ape, life moves on at its usual wild pace--usual for the boisterous Ramona, that is. Soon she is accidentally squashing a raw egg into her hair at the school cafeteria, being forced to play Uncle Rat with her annoying young neighbor, and, worst of all, throwing up in her classroom. The responsibilities of an 8-year-old are sometimes daunting, especially in a family that is trying to squeak by while the father goes back to school. But Ramona is full of too much vim and vigor to ever be down for long.
In her second Newbery Honor Book about Ramona (the first was Ramona and Her Father), Beverly Cleary presents another slice of the Quimby family life. Author of more than two dozen children's books, Cleary has a true knack for understanding the tangle of thoughts and emotions in a child's mind and heart. Empathic, witty, and astute, she has earned many other awards, including the Newbery Medal for Dear Mr. Henshaw. Alan Tiegreen's clever line drawings have charmed countless readers of Cleary's books over the years, and his style is now inextricably tied to hers. (Ages 8 to 12) --Emilie Coulter
