Ramona Quimby, Age 8

Yoto Says: Third grade isn’t quite what Ramona expected. Being eight isn’t easy, but it’s never dull! The 6th book in the boisterous, beloved Ramona Quimby series. 

Ramona likes that she's old enough to be counted on, but must everything depend on her? Mrs. Quimby has gone back to work so that Mr. Quimby can return to school, and Ramona is expected to be good for Mrs. Kemp while her parents are away, to be brave enough to ride the school bus by herself, and to put up with being teased by Danny the Yard Ape. In Ramona's world, being eight isn't easy, but it's never dull!
