  • Dear Mr Henshaw Written by Beverly Cleary
    Dear Mr Henshaw Written by Beverly Cleary STORY SUMMARY Eleven-year-old Leigh Botts lives with his mother in Pacific Grove, California, U.S.A. following his parents’ divorce. Leigh is learning to cope with the recent divorce, his new home, his new neighbourhood and his new school. He is also adjusting to life without his dog. His teacher gives the class an assignment of writing to an author. Leigh reluctantly writes to the author of Ways to Amuse a Dog, Mr Boyd Henshaw. Mr Henshaw answers Leigh’s letter, and Leigh fulfills the assignment; however, Mr Henshaw asks Leigh some questions of his own. This becomes the beginning of a correspondence friendship between Leigh and Mr Henshaw. Mr Henshaw encourages Leigh to keep a journal. He also gives him writing tips and offers other tokens of friendship. Very slowly and painfully Leigh adjusts to his new life. He describes himself as the “mediumest boy in class” to Mr Henshaw. When he invents an alarm system for his lunchbox, he finally feels special. Through writing, Leigh starts to express his feelings. Finally,Education he discusses these feel- ings with both his mother and father. Encouraged by his teachers, Leigh enters a writing contest. Working through the problems of what to write and how to develop his story takes Leigh’s mind off his other problems. As it turns out, he gets an “Honourable Mention” for his entry and gets recog- nition from a professional author. He comes to terms with his parents’ divorce, his father’s way of life and not having his dog.

A Party at the Quimbys’ 6. Beezus’s Birthday About the Author Other Books by Beverly Cleary Credits Copyright About the Publisher 1 Beezus and Her Little Sister Beatrice Quimby’s biggest problem was her little sister Ramona. Beatrice, or Beezus (as everyone called her, because that was what Ramona had called her when she first learned to talk), knew other nine-year-old girls who had little sisters who went to nursery school, but she did not know anyone with a little sister like Ramona. Beezus felt that the biggest trouble with four-year-old Ramona was that she was just plain exasperating. If Ramona drank lemonade through a straw, she blew into the straw as hard as she could to see what would happen. If she played with her finger paints in the front yard, she wiped her hands on the neighbors’ cat. That was the exasperating sort of thing Ramona did. And then there was the way she behaved about her favorite book. It all began one afternoon after school when Beezus was sitting in her father’s big chair embroidering a laughing teakettle on a pot holder for one of her aunts for Christmas. She was trying to embroider this one neatly, because she planned to give it to Aunt Beatrice, who was Mother’s younger sister and Beezus’s most special aunt. With gray thread Beezus carefully outlined the steam coming from the teakettle’s spout and thought about her pretty young aunt, who was always so gay and so understanding.

She had enjoyed a good day in second grade, and she looked for- ward to working on her list. For Ramona a Christmas list was a list of presents she hoped to receive, not presents she planned to give. “Ye-e-ep!” she sang again. 1 “Thank goodness today is payday,” remarked Mrs. Quimby, as she opened the refrigerator to see what she could find for supper. “Ye-e-ep!” sang Ramona, as she printed mice or ginny pig on her list with purple crayon. Next to Christmas and her birthday, her father’s payday was her favorite day. His payday meant treats. Her mother’s payday from her part-time job in a doctor’s office meant they could make payments on the bedroom the Quimbys had added to their house when Ramona was in first grade. “What’s all this yeeping about?” asked Mrs. Quimby. “I’m making a joyful noise until the Lord like they say in Sunday school,” Ramona explained.“Only they don’t tell us what the joyful noise sounds like so I made up my own.” Hooray and wow, joyful noises to Ramona, had not sounded right, so she had 2 settled on yeep because it sounded happy but not rowdy.
