She was much too excited to dust. Publisher's noteBeverly Cleary has given books to each member of the Quimby household except Mrs. Quimby. Now she gets her turn at last in a story that hits the high and low points of a working mother's life as seen from Ramona's seven-and-a-half-year-old viewpoint. Inevitably domestic tensions, not without their amusing side, occasionally arise. Mr. and Mrs. Quimby sometimes forget who is to do what, as when the Crock-Pot is not plugged in and dinner remains uncooked. Beezus acquires a ludicrous teased hairdo at the student body shop while Ramona gets a becoming pixie haircut. Ramona, who feels unloved, takes to twitching her nose like a rabbit in a cozy picture book until her teacher becomes concerned that something is making her nervous. Yet Ramona is wrong. She is loved, and readers will rejoice with her when she discovers the wonderful truth. Few writers today are as skilled as Mrs. Cleary at showing families in the round, and here she is at the peak of her powers. Ramona struggles to understand her place in her mother's world now that she has a little sister, in this republication of Cleary's classic title, featuring new art and cover. This volume celebrates the August 1999 release of the first Ramona book in 15 years, "Ramona's World." AnnotationThe fourth book about rambunctious and realistic Ramona Quimby focuses on 7 1/2-year-old Ramona's relationship with her mother. With both parents working, Ramona sometimes feels neglected, but her mother always manages to show Ramona just how much she is loved. Other titles in the series include RAMONA THE PEST, and RAMONA QUIMBY, AGE 8.
