Follows the adventures of nine-year-old Ramona at home with big sister, Beezus and baby-sitter, Roberta, and at school in Mrs. Meachum's class. Life is hard when you're sourrounded by perfection! At least this is what Ramona thinks! Cute book about the trials and tribulations of fourth grade. Ramona soon learns that imperfection is the way to go. Ramona's World is a wonderful and humorous story. Ramona is a young girl entering the fourth grade. She experiences this transitional time with humor, curiosity, and with a few struggles. The reader moves with Ramona on her search for friendship, identity, and responsibility. The experiences of Ramona are ones with which many students will identify. Oh, how I missed Ramona! I wish Cleary would write a teen Ramona series, it would be interesting to see how her life has turned out. It's odd, but I remember loving Ramona as a child, and in this book more than anything, I was really interested in Beezus's life (hence the Teen Ramona idea). As always, Ramona is relatable to any child, and even more so now with the addition of a lovable best friend, Daisy Kidd. The ending is sweet, but as always leaves you wanting more, and more will sadly not be appearing. Amazing book, should be read by everyone no matter the age. In this book, Ramona is a fourth-grader. She becomes best friends with Daisy Kidd, a new girl at school, who is friendly and not too perfect. Ramona also has a new baby sister at home, and Beezus is going to her first boy-girl party. To me, this is not the strongest of the Ramona books. It's still enjoyable, though. One of my favorite things about these books is that Beverly Cleary seems so in touch with how kids feel and with what matters to them, and that's what makes the Ramona books seem so authentic. no reviews | add a review
