Today I finished Ramona and her Father by Beverly Cleary. It's about what happens when a little girl's father loses his job and Ramona tries to cheer everybody up.
She helps her dad quit smoking, makes tin-can stilts (read the book to find out what is), and performs in the church play as a sheep! Along the way, she gets a crown of burs stuck in her hair, tries to be the kind of kids she sees in commercials, and gets in trouble at school.
I think that a lot of kids can relate to Ramona due to the recession. Ramona tries to make things better, and she does fun things throughout the book. It also talks about family problems and how to solve them.Beverly Clearly is an amazing author, and if you love this book, you'll love all of her other stories too.
