In this first volume, it comes with 4 books: Beezus and Ramona, Ramona the pest, Ramona the Brave, Ramona and her Father. (boxed set) all by Author Beverly Cleary.
My Review:
These books are the best books there is. It's great for children who will enjoy the simplicity in the narration and the stories and the adventures. It's also great for adults. I found this book at Amazon.com., and I'm glad I did. I haven't read these books when I was young but I'm happy I found them now.
After reading them, I found myself thinking back to my childhood and it also helped me remember a few things like how I used to think when I was in that age. lol! Beverly Cleary wrote these books so well it's as if she wrote as she grew along with Ramona.
I also love the new illustrations by Tracy Dockray because it shows an updated look on today's kids which they can identify and it looks so much better.
I totally recommend the volume 1 and 2 of "The Ramona Collection" by Beverly Cleary. :D for kids AND adults.
Quote:
"Once again, Beverly Cleary proves her own mettle in this touching and hilarious Newbery Honor Book. Beloved author of over two dozen children's books, and recipient of many awards, including another Newbery Honor for Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and a Newbery Medal for Dear Mr. Henshaw, Cleary's instinct for children's jumbled emotions is flawless. Alan Tiegreen's adroit line drawings perfectly complement Cleary's style; it's hard to imagine one without the other. (Ages 8 to 12) --Emilie Coulter"
