Beverly Clearly died at 104 in March prompting someone of my book friends and I to reread our favorite “teen” book of hers. It was just so much fun. So this is my March #12booksof2021 Warm fuzzies all around.

Into her 90s, Cleary said she expected children would still read her books for decades to come.
"You can curl up with a book, and I don't think anything takes the place of reading,"
May her memory be for a blessing ??
104 ?
Currently working on my July #TBR. June had 7 books and that turned out to be too many, so I am scaling back this month. Right now I can't decide what to read for #middlegrade #classic...
The Luckiest Girl
Tuck Everlasting
I, Juan de Pareja
Catherine Called Birdy
Bed-Knob and Broomstick
Ghosts I Have Been
Letters from Rivka
The Phantom Tollbooth
Thoughts? #helpmedecide

I love this book so much. Shelley leaves her hometown to spend the school year in California. Once again Beverly Cleary just nails the experience of being a girl. Sometimes you just want to cram roses down a garbage disposal to express your feelings.
