[quote=Anonymous]Growing up, I loved Cleary's books, especially all the Ramona stories. My husband, whose librarian mom had introduced him to Henry and Ribsy, only knew Ramona as a peripheral character in those books, but he got to know her better as we read all the books aloud to our kids. They also became big Cleary fans. Cleary's memoirs, A Girl from Yamhill and On My Own Two Feet, are excellent; she had a sad childhood, but moved forward to create these wonderful stories and a happy life for herself. BTW, if you're ever in Portland, Oregon, you can visit the Beverly Cleary Garden in Grant Park, with sculptures of Ramona, Henry and Ribsy. [/quote]
