Publisher Description

This warm-hearted story of a mother's love for her spirited young daughter is told beautifully by Newbery Medal–winning author Beverly Cleary.

Ramona Quimby is no longer seven, but not quite eight. She's "seven and a half right now," if you ask her. Not allowed to stay home alone, yet old enough to watch pesky Willa Jean, Ramona wonders when her mother will treat her like her older, more mature sister, Beezus.

But with her parents' unsettling quarrels and some spelling trouble at school, Ramona wonders if growing up is all it's cracked up to be. No matter what, she'll always be her mother's little girl…right?

Readers ages 6-12 will laugh along with and relate to Ramona's timeless adventures.

"I thought Ramona and her Mother was good book. The only funny part was whenever Beezus was making a salad she put carrots in them and Ramona looked at them then she sighed with relief that the carrots were blood- free because usually Beezus cuts her finger. I liked this book a lot. "
— Alisse (5 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

“Cleary keeps this book hopping, jumping easily from scenario to scenario. Its success, as in Cleary’s other Ramona books, is in pulling our heartstrings and making us laugh. Readers will hoot as Ramona squirts every last drop from a new toothpaste tube—just because she always wanted to. We also see her nearly barf in the backseat of the car, and dye herself and her friend Howie bright blue.”
— Children’s Literature
“Inimitable and highly entertaining…Children will relate to this winning heroine…Beautifully written.”
— School Library Journal

" I read this book in about an hour, maybe more. I don't think I read this particular one when I was young, but I enjoyed it even as an adult. I read it with the eyes of a mother, and it made me wonder what goes on in MY little (big!) girl's head... "

About Beverly Cleary

Beverly Cleary (1916–2021) was an American author of highly acclaimed fiction for children and young adults, including the Henry Huggins series, Ramon Quimby series, stand-alone novels, picture books, and two memoirs. Some of her many awards include the Newbery Medal, the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, and the National Medal of Arts. She was born in McMinnville, Oregon, and lived on a farm in Yamhill, a town so small it had no library. Her mother arranged to have books sent to their tiny town from the state library and acted as a librarian in a room over a bank. It was there that she learned to love books. Generations of children have grown up with Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, Ralph Mouse, and all of their friends, families, and assorted pets. Her books continue to capture the hearts and imaginations of children of all ages throughout the world.
