The World of Beverly Cleary Beverly Cleary After graduation from junior college in Ontario, California, and the University of California at Berkeley, Mrs. Cleary entered the School of Librarianship at the University of Washington, Seattle. There she specialized in library work with children. She was Children's Librarian in Yakima, Washington, until she married Clarence Cleary and moved to California. The Clearys are the parents of twins, now grown. Mrs. Cleary's hobbies are travel and needlework. Mrs. Cleary's books have earned her many prestigious awards, including the 1984 John Newbery Medal for Dear Mr. Henshaw , for the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children in 1983. Her Ramona and Her Father and Ramona Quimby, Age 8 were named 1978 and 1982 Newbery Honor Books, respectively.

In addition, Mrs. Cleary was the 1984 United States author nominee for the Hans Christian Andersen Award, a prestigious international award.

Beverly Cleary by Mary Shackelford Tise 15 March 1999 Introduction Characters; the appeal of Henry, Ramona and Ralph Biography; write about what you know Style, setting, and themes in Beverly Cleary's novels ... Works consulted for this paper Introduction Beverly Cleary has written stories that have amused children and adults for almost fifty years. In the course of her career, Cleary has created some of the most memorable characters in children's literature, including Ramona Quimby, Ralph S. Mouse, and Henry Huggins. A list of the awards and honors she has earned fills two pages in the reference volumes Something about the Author. These awards include the John Newbery Medal (for the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children) for her 1983 novel Dear Mr. Henshaw, and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award (for substantial and lasting contributions to children's literature) in 1975. I chose to write about Beverly Cleary not because of her critical acclaim, however, but because she writes stories that my own children (and, to be perfectly honest, I myself) love to read.

To R L Stine To Shakespeare Beverly says "Writing for young readers was my childhood ambition... I had had enough of books about wealthy English children who had nannies and pony carts or books about poor children whose problems were solved by a long-lost rich relative turning up in the last chapter. I wanted to read funny stories about the sort of children I knew, and I decided that someday when I grew up I would write them." Where was Beverly Born? Was her father a baker? How did she get her books? What was Beverly's job before she was married? What was the name of her husband? How many children does she have? What was her first book called? Look at the list of Beverly's Books How many dog biscuits did she write about? Look at the Web Page about the Mouse and the Motor Cycle... Who owned the Motorcycle?

Main Page Recent changes Edit this page Page history ... Printable version Not logged in Log in Help Beverly Cleary From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Beverly Cleary (born April 12 ) is the author of over 30 books for children and young adults. Her characters are normal children facing the same challenges that every child faces growing up and her stories are liberally laced with humor, making them easy to relate to and hard to put down. Some of her best known and loved characters are Ramona Quimby Henry Huggins , and Ralph S. Mouse Beverly Cleary was born Beverly Atlee Bunn in McMinnville, Oregon . When she was 6, her family moved to Portland, Oregon where she attended school. She was slow in learning to read, due partly to her dissatisfaction with the books she was required to read and partly to an unpleasant first grade teacher. It wasn't until her third grade year that she found enjoyment from books, when she started reading The Dutch Twins by Lucy Fitch Perkins . Thereafter, she was a frequent visitor to the library, though she rarely found the books she most wanted to read those about children like herself. She moved to California to attend the University of California, Berkeley

She was the only girl assigned to the "blackbird" reading group, the lowest in that Portland, Oregon, first grade. How could such a thing happen? Why, her mother used to be a school teacher and had been surrounding her with books and reading since she'd been an infant. In fact, her mom had opened the first library in the little farm community they used to live in. She'd always told the girl that school was wonderful and so were books and reading.

Beverly Cleary Biography Beverly Cleary was born in McMinnville in Yamhill County , Oregon on April 12, 1916. If you like her books, you might want to read more about her in her own memoirs, The Girl from Yamhill , published in 1988, and My Own Two Feet , published in 1995. Both books were published by the William Morrow Co. If you can't find these books, you can get them on interlibrary loan through your public library. Please ask. She went to college and became a librarian, just like me. She and her husband, Clarence, are the proud parents of twins, a boy and a girl, who are all grown up now, of course. The Clearys live in Carmel, California . My favorite books are the Ramona Quimby books. These, with the Henry Huggins books, are considered classics in children's literature. Henry Huggins was her first published book in 1950! The settings [place where the story happens] is Portland, Oregon. Northeast Portland has a Beverly Cleary Sculpture Garden with sculptures of Ramona, Henry Huggins and his dog Ribsy. You can see Ramona's statue there. There are also some pictures of Beverly Cleary and her husband, Clarence, at that WWW link. The photo you see at the top of the page comes from that page. Her books are among the first "chapter" books we read in school, usually anywhere from second to fourth grade. I like the Ramona books because they are realistic. It's not always easy being young. Ramona and her family are very real people to me. The family faces real life problems, as in

Ramona's World finds Ramona entering the fourth grade, longing for a best girlfriend, and still being happily disgusted by Yard Ape. BookPage had the delightful opportunity to talk to Newbery Medalist Beverly Cleary about her writing, her life, and her beloved Ramona Geraldine Quimby. Cleary became interested in writing for children because reading meant so much to her as a child. "I was a great reader of fairy tales. I tried to read the entire fairy tale section of the library: Andrew Lang's Blue Fairy Book, Red Fairy Book, and so on, probably down to the Puce or Chartreuse fairy tales," she laughs. These days, Cleary reads biographies and some fiction by English women writers.

The sculptor, Lee Hunt also presented the Gresham Regional Library with two terra cotta busts of "Ramona": one smiling smugly, and one frowning angrily. At both occasions, Beverly Cleary greeted old and new fans. For forty-five years Beverly Cleary has written winsome books for young readers; books well-received by both readers and critics. Her approach has been to been to write not what children ought to read about, but what they want to read about. As a reluctant reader herself, she has described a strategy to encourage young readers: "Although children long for laughter, too often . . . adults feel the purpose of any book is to teach . . . Children would learn so much more if they were allowed to relax, enjoy a story, and discover what it is they want or need from books. They might even learn to enjoy reading, especially if they found in the early grades humorous books that make them laugh." (
