Book Description:
Ramona just wants everyone to be happy. If only her father would smile and joke again, her mother would look less worried, her sister would be cheerful, and Picky-picky would eat his cat-food. But Ramona's father has lost his job, and nobody in the Quimby household is in a very good mood.

Ramona tries to cheer up the family as only Ramona can -- by rehearsing for life as a rich and famous star of television commercials, for instance -- but her best efforts only make things worse. Her sister, Beezus, calls her a, pest, her parents lose patience with her, and her teacher claims she's forgotten her- manners. But when her father admits he wouldn't trade her for a million dollars, Ramona knows everything is going to work out fine in the end.

Ramona just wanted everyone to be happy. If only her father would smile and joke again, her mother would look less worried, her sister would be cheerful, and Picky-picky would eat his cat food. But Ramona's father had lost his job, and nobody was in a good mood.

Ramona kept trying to cheer up her family, but every new idea seemed to cause more trouble. Her sister Beezus called her a pest, her parents became impatient with her, and her teacher claimed she'd forgotten her manners. But when her father told her he wouldn't trade her for a million dollars, Ramona knew everything was going to be OK.

Ramona's father lost his job and nobody in the family was in a good mood. Ramona keeps coming up with ideas to cheer everyone up, and, in the usual Ramona-style, gets into trouble, trouble, and more trouble. Funny!
