Ramona and Her Father (Avon Camelot Books)

Amazon.com

Second grade is not turning out the way it should for Ramona Quimby. Her dad has lost his job, her mom has found a full-time job, and her big sister Beezus has "reached a difficult age." In her inimitable way, Ramona decides to take charge. She practices TV commercials in hopes of earning a million dollars, but only ends up insulting her teacher and getting into a prickly mess with some burrs. Then she embarks on a campaign to make her father stop smoking. Mr. Quimby manages to hold up under all these strains, but the challenge is on for the whole family to prove their mettle.

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

Book Description

Ramona just wants everyone to be happy. If only her father would smile and joke again, her mother would look less worried, her sister would be cheerful, and Picky-picky would eat his cat-food. But Ramona's father has lost his job, and nobody in the Quimby household is in a very good mood.

Ramona tries to cheer up the family as only Ramona can -- by rehearsing for life as a rich and famous star of television commercials, for instance -- but her best efforts only make things worse. Her sister, Beezus, calls her a, pest, her parents lose patience with her, and her teacher claims she's forgotten her- manners. But when her father admits he wouldn't trade her for a million dollars, Ramona knows everything is going to work out fine in the end.

Classic Ramona!.......2006-12-02

After her father lost his job and her mother is forced to find one, 7-year-old Ramona begins trying to take the family's finances into her own hands...literally. She spends her days reciting various TV commercials, in the hopes of being noticed by a talent scout, when she decides to crown herself with burrs, ending less than successfully.

Ramona is also concerned about her father's health. At 7, she is painfully aware of classmates without fathers, and she is afraid that she may lose her own if he does not stop smoking.

Whether in the 1950s or today, Cleary hits the worries and joys of a seven-year-old dead on every time.

Good 4 younger kids.......2005-12-21

This boook is ok, but the reason I disliked it was because of the younger aged vocabulary. I am in 6th grade so the vocabulary bored me to death especially since I have an already higher reading level than a normal 6th grader. I suggest this book to grades 3 and 4 the most maybe advanced 2nd grader.

Good 4 Younger Kids.......2005-12-20

I really liked Ramona and her Father but I thought it was a little boring. I thought that because the reading level is lower then what I expected w/ me being a 6th grader and the fact that my reading level is already high. That is why I advise maybe grades 3 and 4 to read it; maybe advanced 2nd graders. They will enjoy this book a lot. All together I think it is a good book, but not for my age level. I really think that the way Beverly Cleary writes is funny and that 3rd and 4th graders will really enjoy it.

If only we had a million dollars..........2005-04-04

Well as they say, "Money can't buy happiness". Ramona thinks it can, well it can but it doesn't have to in this case. Mr. Quimby losing his job was tough on the whole family, especially Ramona. She couldn't do anything about it if she tried. Her father let her know they're trying to be a perfect family and surely enough this reflects back to my family. When my father lost to someone else for this "government" job, it was tough on me. I wanted to get a job, raise money, anything just to see my father happy. We aren't the perfect family and neither is Ramona's. That's why I can relate so much to her.

Ramona and her father.......2005-01-04

The book I read was Ramona and her Father. This book is about a girl a named Ramona and her father. Her dad was fired from his job, so that meant that he would get to spend more time with Ramona. She was happy about getting to spend time with her dad. But her dad smoked and she did not like that. It was bad enough that they weren't going to have much money since her dad wasn't working but then he was spending the money he did have on cigarettes. Ramona did everything she could to try to get her dad to stop, but he just wouldn't. But they did other things together that Ramona did like. They did things like draw big pictures and they got to spend a lot of time together. Ramona liked to be able to spend so much time with her dad but she didn't like the fact that he smoked.

The main character was Ramona. Her appearance is a little different than most peoples because she just seems a little weird at times. Her personality seems ok until her sister Beezus comes around, then Ramona always fights with her. Some of the traits that are the same with Ramona and I are that she always fights with her older sister and I always fight with my older brother. Also I like to spend time with my dad and so does she. Some of the things that are different between Ramona and I is that she is a lot younger than me. Her dad smokes and mine doesn't. She has an older sister and I have an older brother.

I liked this book because it reminded me a lot like me. My favorite part was when Ramona was trying to make her dad stop smoking and her and Beezus made cigarettes out of paper and wrote stuff on them and put it in their dad's cigarette box instead of his cigarettes. Yes, I would recommend this book to a friend.

I would just like to say that these books are addictive once you start reading them you just can't stop I have honestly enjoyed all of the ones that I have read unfortunately I cant get my hands on the sixth one but I am still looking The author has given us fantasy and romance all in one story and for me that is the greatest part.I hope every one who has read this set of books has gotten the same enjoyment out of them as I have Thank you, Quinn Taylor Evans for such a wonderful imagination.

I loved the characters, but..........2000-11-17

I have been reading this series since the very first. I stumbled on this book long after I had thought the series had come to a close. (I understand that the previous one was very good, but I have been unable to run across one in my local bookstores, so I have it on order here.) Anyway, I was quite taken with the character of Rhianne, but I found the plotline itself to be rather lack luster. It was missing some of the energy of the previous books and it forced some rather out of character actions onto the herouine.

I found one particular group of scenes so difficult to track that I would almost say that the author rewrote it several times and included every version. Others seemed as if they were copied and pasted in several times. Too much descriptive vocabulary was copied from one scene to the next.

In short, I would have preferred to see Rhianne's character transplanted into an entirely different story. She had such a strength of character in the beginning. I felt that her author had failed her by placing her in a story which had such obvious weaknesses.

great book.......2000-10-03

first,i would have rated this book a 5 star just because it had my favorite characters,meg and connor.it was heartwretching when connor was dying. all i could think of was how could meg live without him.(and me for that matter)they had such a wonderful story in dawn of camelot.meg gave up almost all of her powers to be with connor(a mortal)the love they shared was my alltime favorite story.

this book was about the daughter they had to give up so she could be safe.and the hero,quinton,was also from ddawn of camelot.meg and connor were like the parents he lost when he was younger.meg sends quinton to find theyre daughter since shes no longer safe.he finds her dressed like a boy and brings her back home.she has no memory of her parents.it is heartbraking to hear about connor(her fathers )being on his deathbed.although she finally gets too know him before he dies.

quinton and meg go on to fight the darkness.it was a great story especially since there was so many of my favorite characters back from the dawn of camelot.a great book,enjoy

Good but a little less than the others........1999-09-19

I've read all the books in the series. If Meg saved Merlin from the evil one's wasting sickness in a previous book, then why couldn't Connor be saved from the same? I also have to say that I felt like the ending was too simple.

Amazon.com

Writing convincingly in a young person's voice poses a huge challenge even to an experienced author like Lynne Reid Banks (The Indian in the Cupboard and others)--probably second only to writing in authentic-sounding dialect. Banks manages to do both brilliantly in the public and private notes of almost-10-year-old Alice Elizabeth Williamson-Stone, a sensitive, quirky British girl being raised by her struggling single mom. Alice dutifully reports her name in the first line of the book as part of an autobiography in her School Notebook, which continues throughout. But we soon learn that much of the turmoil in her world revolves around that name's origins. In her private Special Notebook, Alice later describes meeting her grandmother Gene at the age of three: "She rang Mum (in Brighton this was) and they had a row straight off because Williamson-Stone is on my birth certificate.... Gene said I had no right to that name because Mum wasn't married to my dad and she said Mum'd stolen it. Of course that's stupid, you can't steal a name... she could've called me Alice Pokémon or Alice Peanut Butter Sandwich." Alice's strong accent and idiosyncratic language can be a bit off-putting until you get to know her, but patience pays off, and the contrast makes her recounting of The Simpsons and Oprah Winfreythat much better.

Pulled between loving but strong-willed parental figures with their own complicated histories (and she hasn't even met her dad yet), Alice must find her way despite a rocky home life, an unexpected and emotional move, and the usual demands of a difficult age. But she shines through it all as a stalwart, likable, and--most importantly for middle-school readers--believable heroine. (Ages 9 and 12) --Paul Hughes

Book Description

It's Just so stupid, asking us to write our life for homework. It's not even a weekend!

Alice Williamson-Stone doesn't see how she can write her life story as a class assignment. How can she fit 9 1/2 years into a couple of pages? Anyway, what's interesting in her life is not the "family and pets" stuff her teacher asked for. Her pets have died, and the only family she has is her mother. Until recently she had a beloved, interfering grandmother--Gene--but she's gone from Alice's life. Besides, as Alice discovered ages ago, she was born by accident, and that's the sort of private thing you don't write about for school. Alice does the assignment but she thinks it's pretty boring, until in doing it she discovers a need to write about her true life--the exciting, complicated, private parts.

In her secret notebook, Alice begins to write her"{ilustrated} ortoblography." Alice writes about her mother's difficult early life and her determination to become a "professional single parent." She writes how Gene, her absent father's mother, came along, and how she changed Alice's life, making it richer in experience but also more complicated. And she records on going quarrels between her mother and grandmother about how to bring Alice up, which ended with the Big Row. Now Alice has just her Number One person, her mum, struggling with problems of money, career, health, where to live, and how to manage on her own--problems Alice can only deal with by writing about them. Except when she tries to help . .

Lynne Reid Banks offers a compelling story of a creative child caught in the middle of a difficult, but very real and increasingly common situation. Poignant, funny, and startlingly honest, Alice-by-Accident is certain to touch the heart of any child who has ever felt different, and of any adult who has to deal with the problems of children who come by accident.

I thought Alice By Acciedent was a great book, you feel like you are side by side with her during her story. I sugggest this book to anybody who likes realistic fiction and enjoys hearing stories in first person and also likes stories that remind themselves of them.

Alice-By-Accident.......2000-06-07

Alice Elizabeth Williamson-Stone is the nine-and-a-half-year-old voice of her generation. Asked to write an autobiography in her School Notebook, she records much of the turmoil of her young life: being raised by her struggling single mom, never having met her father, and coping with the plit between her mom and Gene, her paternal grandmother . Gene doesn't approve of the fact that Alice's mom and dad never married and now are asked to move out of Gene's house because Alice's father and his new wife need it. alice's loyalties are torn between her mom and grandmom and she struggles to comprehend adult relationships and her place in the world. But the book rings true to the voices of 10 year olds everywhere. Alice is sensitive, quirky British girl and is a likeable believable herioine.

Customer Reviews:

One horrid book.......2004-09-25

I really have to say that this is one of the worst books I've ever read. It goes on for fifty pages after what would have been a good ending, and just isn't that interesting. The idea is interwsting, but the book is absolutely horrid. I would not recommend it to anyone at all. Ugh.

Jordan's cool review of calling me home.......2002-12-20

The begining of this book was kind of boring, it talked about how Abbie didnt wont to live on the prairie she wonted to move back to town in st. joesph. she had two brothers and one sister they lived in a sody on the prairie her dad worked in town and the family didnt see him for weeks then one day he came home for a week then her brother nathaniel got very sick so abbie had to take her dad back in to town on the way back her sister sarah told her to go back in to town and get a doctor because both of her brothers were very sick when the doctor came he said that her little brother charlies was going to die then the family was very sad.

Could have been much better........2002-06-16

"Calling Me Home" is interesting in a historical point of view, but other than that, it is a boring book. Unlike many other Oregon Trail inspired books, this story deals with the process in buying land and living in a soddy. This book was very redundant and lacked character development. Topics were mentioned, but then dropped: example Abbie's piano, their old house, family members stricken with cholera, By's family, etc. If these potential story lines had been expounded on, the book would have been much better. I do not recommend.

A great book!.......1998-11-19

Twelve year old Abbie and her family are homesteaders living on the Nebraska prairies in the 1850s. Abbie wishes they could go back to their old home in Missouri. She hates living in a sod house out in the middle of nowhere. When tragedy strikes, Abbie blames herself. Can she ever forgive herself - and come to love her new home on the prairie? I highly reccomend this book.

A girl's life with her family on a prairie homestead........1998-11-13

This novel is about a young girl named Abbie who moves with her mother, father, and two younger brothers and a younger sister from St. Louis, Missouri, to a prairie homestead in the 1850s. Abbie resents her parents' decision to move to Nebraska. She wants to live in a real house, go to school, have friends, and own a piano. Then tragedy strikes the family. Abbie wonders if she is to blame. Can she ever feel at home on the prairie? This was a heartwarming story of a young girl uprooted from her home who tries to accept that certain things just happen and no one is to blame for them, and that sometimes a new home can bring good changes. I highly reccomend this book.

Book Description

Ever since sixteen-year-old Tabitha Fortune was a child growing up in Rim, South Dakota, she's heard stories about ghost horses-nightmare creatures whose giant bones haunt the sandstone cliffs near the Badlands. When paleontologist Dr. Phineas X. Parker announces plans to dig for these bones, Tabitha vows to join his crew.

But this is 1899, and the world has different expectations for young women. Tabitha's preacher father urges her to abandon her interest in science. "Pray for a godly husband", he lectures, "not a godless education." Even Dr. Parker discourages Tabitha, saying, "Vertebrate paleontology is no place for a lady." That leaves Tabitha with just one choice-and being a "lady" has nothing to do with it.

Customer Reviews:

A teenage feminist at the turn of the (20th) century.......2000-12-29

Tabitha's the daughter of a *very* conservative minister in North Dakota in 1899, when anthropologists are just beginning to show up looking for dinosaur skeletons. Her father's convinced these skeletons have been planted there by the devil, and forbid's Tabitha from even trying to learn more about them, let alone join an excavation team. So Tabitha dresses up as a boy, claiming to be a twin brother called Tom, and sneaks out to be on a team, with the help of an older woman friend, Abby.

When I first opened this book, I was a little skeptical, it seemed like it was going to be easy reading, and I was very frightened at the prospect of a romantic element finding it's way in there, which would cause all sorts of problems for Tabbie (since she's dressed up as a guy and all). But while it was kind of an easy read, it was very enjoyable. I could hardly put this book down Christmas morning as it's very engaging and you always want to find out how Tabitha gets herself out of each difficult situation she gets herself into (and, thankfully, they're realistic situations, and they aren't portrayed as being all her fault just because she's a ditzy girl who has no place in science, as she eventually proves she's more capable than many of the men on the expedition).

LOOKING BACK . . .AND MOVING ON

Glennis realizes that she will never have her old life back, the life before her father was sent to prison. The characters are really well drawn, their descriptions make them leap off of the page.

Book Description

Maile had been lonely before Brooke arrived -- and angry too, although she kept her hurt feelings to herself. Not long after her mother was killed in a tsunami, a giant tidal wave that swept the Hawaiian island, her papa moved to the mainland, her brother joined the army, and Maile was left with only her grandmother, Tutu Lady, Poi Dog, her friend Charlie, and Ratman, who likes to collect and measure field rats. At last, she has a friend her own age -- Brooke, who understands Maile's problems, because she has some of her own.

Brooke is funny and spunky, and doesn't even make a big deal about being treated for cancer and losing all her hair. Maile is happy for the first time since her mother died and her father left her.. until she starts worrying that Brooke will get sick again and she'll lose her new friend too. Maile has heard of magical Hawaiian cures and she hopes to keep Brooke healthy with a diet of poi and a visit to a kahuna, a healer who lives in the mountains. Through her desire to cure Brooke, Maile discovers the real island magic of Ho'oponopono, "how to make things right again." And to her surprise, Maile's concern for Brooke leads her to the secret of turning her own life around.

Green Mango Magic offers readers not only a delightful story of the magic of the islands, but also an insightful depiction of native culture and a young girl searching for the meaning of family and friendship.

Customer Reviews:

Enjoyable Reading!.......2001-06-16

The characters were well-crafted, the setting was vivid, and the plot moved along quickly in this heart-warming book. Maile comes to terms with her own problems while helping her cancer-striken friend, Brooke, come to terms with her illness. Maile has a loving family and good friends that help her through.

Thoughtful and intruiging.......2001-05-17

This is a charming, thoughtful story of two very different girls--a native Hawaiian and a haole girl from Seattle--and how their friendship grows as they each face difficult issues. Having lost her mother in a tsunami, Maile (My-lee) resents her father leaving her with her grandmother in order to go to the mainland with his new wife. As Maile contemplates her hurt and anger, Brooke comes to live on the island. Brooke, as Maile quickly discovers, has cancer--and Maile suddenly has much to ponder about healing and forgiveness. The details and language are wonderful, and Sylvie beautifully captures her characters' thoughts and feelings. I look forward to more books from her!

Book that started it all.......2006-09-20

I am now an avid reader and I have to say that this book is what started my love of reading. I read it when I was in 4th grade and I still (11 yrs later) love this book .

It tells the story of Rebecca, a young girl who loses her father and has to live with a mother she doesn't know. As time goes on, surpassing their differences, they start to truly care for one another. Add to this the story of a troubled, young boy with a skill for drawing, as a friend for Rebecca and you have the book that started it all for me!

A Fine Book For Pre-Teens.......2002-07-04

This was one of my favorite books as a kid. Laura Stevenson's writing is clear and fresh, and the story is easy to follow, though it is not a simple one. When Rebecca's father dies, she must move from sunny, idyllic California to bitter Vermont to live with Rachel, the mother she doesn't know. How Becca adjusts to her new life and friends, and how she and Rachel learn to live together and, ultimately, love each other, is an interesting, heart-warming story that should keep a parent reading long after their child has turned the last page with a satisfied sigh.

HAPPILY AFTER ALL ROX !!!.......2002-02-02

This book is the best. It tells of a girl ,when after the death of her father,tries to get along in vermont with her mother who she never met berfore.As she progresses in riding her horse she also progresses in her relationship with her mother and new class mates.She also begins to befriend a mesterious boy with a tough guy reputation.

I loved this book........1999-10-20

It got me thinking about how fortunate we are to have our loved ones. This book is about the death of a dad. It is about learning to cope with things you can't change.The main character, Becca, dealt with the emotions she was feeling well. Going to live with her mom isn't easy, especially when she feels that her mom, Rachel, doesn't love her or want to care for her....

BEST BOOK EVER!.......1997-10-03

This book has got to be the BEST book I've ever read about horses! I love horses and read any book I can find about them. It was nicely written and it's not only about horses but also about family problems that probably some of us suffer from. When Becca learned about her father betraying her, you could really tell that she was deeply depressed about it. Her father; a man she looked up to for most of her life, the man she went to when she had problems, the man that healed her bruises, inside and out betrayed her. When Laura C. Stevenson writes about going back to her mother, a stranger, it feels almost as though Becca is you and you're going back to a mother you never knew you had. Becca learns to forgive her mother through the love of horses. When Becca's mother gives her a pony, Becca not only learns to take care of her pony but to respect it and love it and that's exactly what she learns to do with her mother. This is a definate 10 on the scale of best books! If you're a horselover and love books about horses but also many different things this is a book for you!
