Excerpt: Beverly Cleary (no born Beverly Atlee Bunn; April 12, 1916) is an American author from Oregon. Educated at colleges in California and Washington, she worked as a librarian before writing children's books. Cleary has written more than 30 books for young adults and children. Some of her best-known characters are Henry Huggins, Ribsy, Beatrice ("Beezus") Quimby, her sister Ramona, and Ralph S. Mouse. She has won many awards, including the 1984 Newbery Medal for her book Dear Mr. Henshaw. Cleary was born in McMinnville and grew up on a farm there, with no access to a library. Her mother felt that this was a disadvantage for the students at the small farm school, and she made arrangements to have books sent there from the state library. As a result, Beverly grew to love books. When Beverly was six years old, her family left the farm and moved to Portland, Oregon, where she attended elementary and high school. She blamed her struggle with reading in this new school setting partly on her dissatisfaction with the books she was required to read and partly on an unpleasant first-grade teacher. Also, after six years of living in the country, on a farm, the city life in Portland took a toll on Beverly's health, and in her first-grade year she was frequently ill, which set back her schoolwork and reading skills further. In the second grade, Beverly studied under her favorite teacher, and by the third grade, she had greatly improved her reading ability and found new joy in books.
