Today is Beverly Cleary's 102nd birthday!!! In addition to all of the
wonderful children's books she has written she also wrote a two part
autobiography that is fantastic. The first part is A Girl from Yamhill
and the second is My Own Two Feet. If you enjoyed her books you owe it
to yourself to read these.
What was your favorite Cleary book? Ramona the Brave? Runaway Ralph? Henry and Ribsy? Ellen Tebbits? Mine was Ramona Quimby, Age 8. My all time favorite teacher, Mrs. Primoli, read this to us in first grade and I could not wait to be able to read it for myself.
