Then, as Ramona understood what she was about to do and tried to grab her, Ramona Forever Jean quickly took her Ramona Forever out of the strap, turned, sat on the upended accordion, and lifted both feet from the floor.

I still kinda am; Mr. Quimby's suggestion of Quentin Quincy Quimby was better. These books have Ramona Forever me laugh so much on the adult re-read. They are clever. I love Ramona books - I read them when I was little in the s, and just finished reading them with my 5 year old. He loves them all, too! She's just as loveable in the two "newer" books - Ramona Forever and Ramona's World, as she is in the original 5 or so books. May 06, Heidi rated it liked it. Though I know there's a book that Ramona Forever after this one, this one seemed to be more of a Ramona reunion type of thing--what are the Quimbys up to now, years later, kind of thing. Of course that doesn't make complete sense since it follows directly chronologically to the previous books in Ramona Forever series, but since it was written Ramona Forever after Ramona Forever original series, in that sense it does. But Ramona Forever factors that contribute to that feeling are the more significant--that there's a lot more attention on Aunt Bea Though I know there's a book that comes after this Ramona Forever, this one seemed to be more of a Ramona reunion type of thing--what are the Quimbys up to now, years later, kind of thing. But the factors that contribute to that feeling are the more significant--that there's a lot more Ramona Forever on Aunt Beatrice getting married than on the antics of Ramona. Ramona's growing up, so she's not as cute and funny Ramona Forever more, seems to be the feeling, so the attention drifts to other things--mother having a baby and her perceptions of her to-be uncle. I had some other wonders about the treatment of a mother having a baby and her not telling the children. I'm sure every family is different, but it really didn't make much sense that the parents Ramona Forever keep it a secret from the Ramona Forever for so long and yet tell them to be careful around her. Having been a child at the time this was written, and having a mother who was Ramona Forever, I know that wasn't the sentiment of the 80s when mothers were pregnant. But that might be just my family. Otherwise, the story is pretty engaging, and there are funny things throughout that might keep a child's attention. But generally it seemed the value was more nostalgic for the Quimbys than anything.

The seventh book in the Ramona series had Ramona growing into a mature third grader. Gone is the annoying Ramona from the Henry Huggins books and the Ramona Forever Ramona books and I did miss her. She has grown more self-reflective and self-controlled and has become Ramona Forever a good kid. The earlier books had reminded me of my youngest child, who fits the bill of the annoying younger sister. My son and I have taken to c I've blown through the Henry Huggins and now the Ramona books with my third grade boy. My son and I have taken to calling her Ramona. However, with this book in the series Ramona has matured, that she Ramona Forever more like my third-grade son, who has turned from an annoying boy into a Ramona Forever good kid too. I like third grade! This book wasn't as funny as the earlier books that had me cracking up in hysterical laughter, but I did Ramona Forever it just the same. Nov 18, Arielle Ramona Forever it liked it Shelves: children. Came across Ramona Forever school reading log, so figured I should enter these books in too. In the words of my ten-year-old self, this book was: "Really good, Ramona Forever easy". I hate to say this, but I didn't like this book as much as the others. It felt like the spark had gone out of Ramona, as if Ms. Cleary were writing this because she felt she should, rather than becuase she was Ramona Forever to. It felt forced. Again, most of Ramona's predicaments are now more due to Ramona Forever luck and accidents as opposed Ramona Forever conscious decisions, which isn't as interesting, nor does it teach many lessons to her young readers. The wedding felt forced. The new baby felt forced.
