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.

This is a great children's book. Cleary is well known for her expertise in writing.

One of the many sequels to Ramona the Pest.
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!
Great book for the youngsters.
The Book I have has a different cover on it
