A review by leighannsherwin
Henry and Ribsy by Beverly Cleary

4.0

Henry wants to go fishing with his dad. The catch he can only go if Ribsy behaves himself and they get no complaints about him. Highlights include Henry's parents giving him a haircut which reminded me of stories from my dad and his brothers when my grandpa cut their hair because he didn't want to spend the money. Ribsy also develops a hatred for the garbage man which was funny. Ribsy sort of reminds me of my childhood dog Cloud who often ran away and got into mischief. Ramona is still a horrible brat but it's still a fun story of childhood even if Henry isn't as much fun as Ramona.
