A review by jessalynn_librarian
Ramona and Her Mother by Beverly Cleary

5.0

We listened to the first half on one car trip and the second half on another. It's amazing how well Ramona stands the test of time - Cleary really manages to tap into universal childhood and family issues. I love the way the parents emerge as fuller characters as the series goes on, and the way issues like job loss, parents arguing, and limited income are shown realistically but approachably.
