The Beverly Cleary Quiz

By Miss Cellania in Baby & Kids, Book & Lit on Nov 17, 2009 at 12:06 pm


Award-winning author Beverly Cleary gave us books about Ramona and the kids from Klickitat Street. In today’s Lunchtime Quiz at mental_floss, find out how much you remember from the books. I scored miserably because I read some of these so long ago, and others weren’t written until I was an adult. Link

    I'll skip the quiz and guess my zero score will match any other male over 40. :p

    I got all of them except for who plays the dad in the upcoming movie. I remembered details I hadn't thought about in decades.

    b.t.w. Was I the only 1970s kid who found the switch of illustrators in the books jarring? Up until Ramona the Pest they were drawn as tight pen and inks. Then they switched to a more loose, contemporary illustrations. As a kid this really bugged me.

    Oh man...I haven't read the books in 25 years and it shows. Only 3 right!
