Beezus and Ramona by Beverly Cleary

Beezus and Ramona are two sisters that have a weird life with each other. Ramona is younger than Beezus, and Ramona is only four and her sister is nine. Beezus hates reading The Littlest Steam Shovel, because she has to make these steam shovel noises while reading the book to Ramona, (which she feels silly about) but Ramona loves that book. Ramona was riding her tricycle around the house, and then she crashed into a coffee table and knocked it over. Beezus  was tired of Ramona playing around in the house like that, so she told Ramona that she would read The Littlest Steam Shovel  if she stopped riding her tricycle around the house. When Beezus finished the book Ramona jumped back on her tricycle rode around the house again. ‘’ “LIAR!” Beezus yelled at Ramona, Beezus felt annoyed at Ramona, because how she is brat she is. Then she thought it was good idea to take Ramona to the library so she can get new book. While they were walking to the library the ran in to a lady, it was Mrs. Wisser and her friend. The first thing that Ramona asked is, “What to see my scab?” Then she raised her knee to show them. Beezus put Ramona's leg back down, because she was embarrassed, But I'm going to leave it to you finish because of spoilers. OK...maybe I'll talk about it more, so when they got there Ramona chose a book, and you'll never guess what book she chose. Ramona got..... wait for it ..... The Biggest Steam Shovel. Oh Ramona you're so predictable. Then when Beezus was checking out the book Ramona saw the library card. She said that she wanted one too, so she could check out books like her big sister, so she asked for one, but Beezus said that she needs to know how to write her name.  The librarian thought that she could so she handed a card to her to try, but she just wrote down a bunch of “i” and “t”. Then, when they got home, Beezus just read the book to Ramona, because she is awfully nice that way.

 This book is very funny, because the big sister and the little sister act like how a lot of people love and I’m one of them. This type of books can get boring, but not too fast, it's just that there are so many books like this, and these book are the most popular books out there, but they can get boring. You don’t have to listen to me, and if you have a different thought then me it’s okay, we're all different.  I recommend this book to people who really like books like, oh, I don’t know.... Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
