The adventures of young Ramona Quimby come to life in this all new film based on the best-selling books (over 30 million…and counting) by Beverly Cleary. Ramona’s vivid imagination, boundless energy, and accident-prone antics are put to the test when she helps her family face its biggest challenge. Along the way, Ramona must deal with her over-achieving older sister Beezus and the on-again, off-again romance between her Aunt Bea and Bea’s former beau.

Beezus and Ramona is the first of Beverly Cleary’s books that focus on Ramona Quimby and her sister Beatrice (Beezus). Beezus and Ramona is told by Beezus’ point of view. It was written by Beverly Cleary and illustrated originally by Louis Darling (later editions were illustrated by Alan Tiegreen and then by Tracy Dockray).
Beatrice “Beezus” Quimby is a girl who deals with her pesky sister Ramona Quimby. She is given the nickname Beezus by Ramona because the latter could not say Beatrice when she first learned to talk. Beezus is embarrassed by Ramona when she takes her to the library for keeping her from reading The Littlest Steam Shovel. She is angry at Ramona for writing on the library book. They buy the book at the library. (Before, Beezus didn’t think you could buy books at the library, but she finds out you can.) Beezus is embarrassed in art class when Ramona tries to get another child’s lollipop but gets paint on herself, instead.
Beezus feels guilty because sisters are supposed to love each other. Hate comes over her, however, when Ramona spoils Beezus and Henry Huggins’s checker game. Ramona then locks Ribsy, Henry’s dog, in the bathroom, assuming that he ate Ramona’s cookie. Their mother takes Ribsy out and Henry leaves. Beezus hates Ramona for spoiling the game.
Mrs. Quimby leaves for a little while. Ramona hides thinking that they were playing Hide and Seek. Beezus gets scared but finds Ramona in the basement. She is disappointed because Ramona was taking one bite of an apple, throwing them, and then eating another apple. When Mrs Quimby gets back Ramona explains that she was a bad girl. Beezus, impressed with Ramona’s good behavior, decides to read Ramona the book Big Steve. The next day, Ramona’s behavior changes. Ramona, riding on her tricycle singing Copycat, changes to singing I’m Going to Have a Party, reminding mother about Beezus’ upcoming birthday.
Beezus thinks of inviting her Aunt Beatrice to talk about boys and her life when the phone starts to ring. It was Mrs. Kemp. She asked if she could leave Willa Jean over when she drops off Howie Kemp (Willa Jean is Howie’s baby sister). Mrs. Quimby remembers that she didn’t invite Howie, but Ramona did without permission. When Ramona said she’s having a party, she wasn’t kidding. Beezus sees four children from Ramona’s nursery school. Ramona explains that she invited them yesterday. Everybody goes to Beezus and Ramona’s room and starts to touch everything. Beezus is disgusted and sends everyone to the living room. She tells Ramona to get her toys out of their room.

Beverly Cleary?
when I was in elementary school i used to read these books by Beverly Cleary about a girl named Ramona and she had an older sister and it was about her family and there were like about 20 books in the series I really liked them. Want to know if anyone else has read them.
I have. Twice; once when I was in the 6th grade, once to my kids when they were 5 – 7. They were made into a TV show a while back, and there will be a movie

She is the best example of writing about what you know that I can think of. Her characters didn’t battle space aliens, didn’t win wars, didn’t get carried away in the arms of a passionate man with a checkered past. They led ordinary lives and solved ordinary problems. Yet, plain as they were, she delighted three generations of children.
