Editorial Review:This wonderful Ramona Box Set, by Beverly Cleary, contains four books: Ramona the Brave, Ramona the Pest, Beezus and Ramona, and Ramona Quimby, Age 8.
Beezus and Ramona
Beezus tries very hard to be patient with her little sister, but four-your-old Ramona has a habit of doing the most unpredictable, annoying, embarrassing things in the world. Sometimes Beezus doesn't like Ramona much, and that makes her feel guilty. Sisters are supposed to love each other, but pesky little Ramona doesn't seem very lovable to Beezus right now.
Ramona the Pest
Ramona is off to kindergarten, and it is the greatest day of her life. She loves her teacher, Miss Binney, and she likes a little boy named Davy so much she wants to kiss him. So why does Ramona get in so much trouble? And how does Ramona manage to disrupt the whole class during rest time? Anyone who knows Ramona knows that she never tries to be a pest.
Ramona the Brave
Now that she's six and entering the first grade, Ramona is determined to be brave, but it's not always easy, with a scary new all-by-herself bedroom, her mother's new job, and a new teacher who just doesn't understand how hard Ramona is trying to grow up.
Ramona Quimby, Age 8
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 third grade can do that to a girl. So how can her teacher call her a nuisance? Being a member of the Quimby family in the third grade is harder than Ramona expected.

Rating: - Wonderful reading for children
We bought this for our 7yr old who loves to read chapter books. We had been having trouble finding suitable books for her to read as we are rather fussy about what our daughters are exposed to.
While there aren't too many pictures/drawings, our daughter thoroughly enjoys these books. Before giving them to her to read, we read them first and found them both educational and humorous! We can hear her laughing out at times when reading them. She reads them out for her younger sister who is also ... Read More
Rating: - Ramona Boxed Set
I've loved Beverly Cleary since I was a young girl growing up in Long Island. There were certain books back in '76/'78 that the libraries certainly had in stock authored by Cleary, Blume, Byars and the like. I read them all. I 'think' it was the 2nd or 3rd grade that I got hold of my first book by Cleary and I know I enjoyed them then because I was insistent that my daughter read them before she got out of elementary school. She's a book worm as well. I read them again for the 2nd time at age ... Read More
Rating: - Not just for girls
My six-year old boy is a huge Ramona fan. We've read about six of the Ramona books and I just ordered the four we haven't read yet. Even though right now we don't have new ones to read, he's making me re-read him ones we've already been through. They are his favorite books. And I can see why. Ramona is so real, with emotions, reactions and feelings that little kids can really relate to. Beverly Cleary is a masterful writer for children.
Rating: - Should be on every young girl's shelf
All of the Ramona books are timeless classics that no little girl should miss. I read them over and over as a child, and still leaf through Cleary's treasures at the library!
Beverly Cleary is a truly quality author. Over thirty years later, I still fondly remember Cleary's characters: Ramona, Beezus, Otis Spofford and Ellen Tebbits.
Choose any one-or all of them-as a special gift for a daughter or beloved niece. They're a perfect way to begin a true love of reading!
Rating: - A true gem...
These books will always have a place in my heart. I grew up soaking up every one of the Ramona books and would still be able to get lost in them at the age of 24. The Quimby family is so down-to-earth and the stories are always warming, funny and make you want to curl up and read the whole series in one sitting.
