My daughter enjoys Junie B Jones books, so I thought I'd introduce her to my favorite character/books from when I was her age. She loves Ramona! It is an easy and enjoyable read to share with your child or great for early readers!
Funny and wonderful to read aloud with your children. This seris should be required reading for parents who need a guilt break and to see things from a silly, childish perspective. I have read the seris multiple times to myself and to my daughter.
