Plot Summary
Ramona Quimby is starting the fourth grade, "the best year of her life, so far". However, she soon discovers the many challenges of being a big sister, as she is expected to act as a strong role-model to her baby sister. She also finds it very frustrating to live up to her older sister's responsible nature. Ramona must work hard to improve her spelling and she is expected to spend more time with Susan, a "friend" whom she does not like.
Review
This is a great book for children. The challenges that Ramona faces are typical of her age, and the drama that she faces is hilarious. The text is supported with funny images that depict Ramona's world. The book is broken into chapters, which allows the reader to experience a sense of accomplishment with every chapter.
I would highly recommend this book to any reader - reluctant or not.
Age Range - 8-12
