    News For And About The Libraries Of Northeast Nebraska MARCH, 2006 - Published by the Northeast Library System Kathy Ellerton - System Administrator/Editor National D.E.A.R. Day April 12, 2006 has been proclaimed National “Drop Everything and Read” Day! The National Education Association (NEA), National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), The Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC), a division of the American Library Association, Reading Rockets and HarperCollins Children’s Books today announced a Spring 2006 partnership to establish a nationwide initiative encouraging families to designate a special time to “drop everything and read.” On April 12th, families are asked to take at least 30 minutes to put aside all distractions and enjoy books together. The 90th birthday of beloved Newbery Medal-winning author Beverly Cleary is the official date for National “Drop Everything and Read” Day, and Cleary’s most popular children’s book character, Ramona Quimby, is the program’s official spokes- person (the concept of “Drop Everything and Read” or D.E.A.R. is referenced in the second chapter of Ramona Quimby, Age 8). Ramona’s encounter with D.E.A.R. time in Ramona Quimby, Age 8 was inspired by letters Beverly Cleary received from children who participated in “Drop Everything and Read” activities themselves. Their interest and enthusiasm for this unique reading program inspired Mrs. Cleary to provide the same experience to Ramona, who enjoys D.E.A.R. time with the rest of her class. Like Ramona, kids enjoy D.E.A.R. (sometimes also known as D.I.R.T., S.S.R., U.S.S.R., S.Q.U.I.R.T., F.V.R.

At the August membership meeting in Missoula, I will pass the gavel, and it will be with mixed emotions that I do so. My time as President has flown. It has been a year of stretching for me, as well as a huge learning curve, much bonding, and a lot of fun. I'm hoping that PNLA has benefited from my presidency. It is difficult to look back and say, if not for me, there would not be this, or that. Or say that I prevented some horrendous fate that threatened us, leaped tall buildings in a single bound, put out the fire…but my gaze at this point is a bit like looking in a mirror darkly.

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.
