   Again, I’m dating myself here, but I do remember reading Beverley Cleary’s book ‘The Mouse and the Motorcycle’ when I was a kid. If my memory serves me correctly, that was the very first of many books that I would go on to read multiple times. It was such a cute, heart-warming story.

   Being that my name is RaMona, I LOVED the entire Ramona series by Ms. Cleary. I even made a point to go see the recent film, although I had no childen to take with me. She has written so many wonderful children’s books and I was and will always be a big fan of hers.
