As a little girl Beverly Clearly struggled to learn to read and found most children‘s books uninteresting. She wondered why there weren‘t more books with stories about kids like her. With a lot of hard work and the support of her parents and a special teacher who did not give up on her Beverly did learn to read, and even learned at a young age she had a gift for writing.
