Publisher Description
Newbery Medal–winning author Beverly Cleary lovingly chronicles the ups and downs of elementary school woes. This is perfect for fans of Clementine.
For a girl as enthusiastic about life as Ramona, starting the first grade should be easy! But with a teacher who doesn't understand her, a tattletale classmate, and a scary dog who follows her on the walk home from school, Ramona has a hard time acting like the big girl everyone expects her to be. But when she shows up to school with a missing shoe, Ramona gets a fresh grip on her courage in order to make it through a mortifying situation.
Ramona the Brave is a wonderful choice for independent reading, sharing in the classroom, homeschooling, and book groups.

Ramona the Brave Listener Reviews
-
" It just wasn't as good as Ramona the Pest or Ramona and Beezus. It was still funny, but I didn't get that super insight to the young child's mind as I did in the other two. "

" My son and I enjoyed this book together. It wasn't quite as funny as Ramona the Pest, but it was still very good. My son says that he likes Ramona because she's a lot like him. I'd have to agree with it to a certain extent. Hahaha! "

" I love Ramona, she is cute. She isn't as brave at all, but she may be brave sometimes like when she has a new room to sleep in by herself without Beezus. I love how smart Ramona tries to be and how she embarrasses Beezus. "

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.
