Ramona the Pest by Beverly Cleary
4.0
Ramona Quimby is five-years-old and finally gets to go to school like all the other big kids. She's so excited she can hardly stand it. And then she gets to school and meets her pretty, very kind teacher, Miss Binney. Miss Binney is terrific and really understands Ramona like no one else. So why does Ramona keep getting into trouble? And why has she become a kindergarten dropout?
I loved loved loved the Ramona books when I was a little girl. And this one is so relatable because my earliest memory is of staring out the window and watching all the big kids getting on the school bus and wishing with all my might that I could join them. I can relate to Ramona as well in that I always *wanted* to be good, but I could just never do it for long. Cleary has a great gift of understanding children and her Ramona series is a true gem.
