Ramona the Brave by Beverly Cleary

in Ramona the Brave by Beverly Cleary Ramona Quimby is just starting 1st grade, and finds that it's very different than Kindergarten.

The teacher, Mrs. Griggs is nice, but not as understanding as Miss Binney, Ramona's old Kindergarten teacher. And what is Ramona to do when Susan is copying her artwork but Mrs. Griggs doesn't seem to notice. Also, what happens when Ramona is walking to school and a strange dog starts to chase her? This is a fun book for children, giving them someone to relate to in spunky little Ramona. It's also a good book for older folks who enjoy remembering what it was like to be a kid.
