HelpRe: Ramona & Beverly
in reply to a message by New_Chloë
I like them both. Ramona is very tied to the BC series, but I don't think that's a bad thing. Hey, there are far worse fictional heroines to be named after! I think it's very cute.
I also like Beverly a lot, but it never gets any love on BtN. I think it's bright and enthusiastic and charming.
Anyway, it's odd that Beverly Cleary just died, because I reread the Ramona series a few months ago. I hadn't read them since I was a kid, but they still held up. I love the fact that BC wrote about everyday families with everyday problems, and did it in a funny, engaging way. What a great writer and person. She will be missed.
