SO. This wasn't read by Neil Patrick Harris. I was severely disappointed when I heard a different voice reading the story.

But the gentleman who read this wasn't bad in any way, so I shouldn't complain.

Still. I prefer NPH.

Cute and fun.

Mrs. Cleary and her characters don't disappoint.

This book is a great example of why I wouldn't touch the Ramona books after reading the HH series. She was very annoying to the other characters and was giving little sisters everywhere a bad name! Otherwise great follow up to the first book centering around Henry getting his brand new bike.

Not as good as the first one - kinda boring for me. Gabe liked it still, but not quite as much. I didn't like how mean he was about girls always saying how dumb they are. Also the word "disgusted" was way overused.

What I'd give to hug Beverly Cleary.

Fun, read with 4yo, some great iconic moments. A few too many “ugh GIRLS” moments, and many of the book’s problems could be solved if Henry owned a leash for his dog.

Another author who I enjoyed as a kid! I always had my nose in a book.
