I first read this as a kid in the late 70‘s and remember only and exactly one line: I must, I must, I must increase my bust. 😂
The book is still charming and its themes still relevant.

I don‘t remember these from my childhood, but Beverly Cleary understands kids of all ages #AuthorAMonth #BeverlyClearly
pickPerfectly captures the life of a 6th Grade girl in the 1970s. A walk down memory lane!

pickGosh, I loved this. Heartfelt slice of life YA novel about handling grief after losing a parent. Unflinching and honest. Made me tear up a few different times.
I‘m also so grateful the elements of teenage love sprinkled throughout wasn‘t the main focus - how unique, to be honest.

pickWhat a tricky character that Sharon is! 🤣
Cute lil children‘s book on the principal of the grass is always greener. As a person with a lot of freckles, I‘d be ready for that magic remover, too. 😆 #AuthorAMonth
pickI reread this for #AuthorAMonth. It held up to what I remember from my childhood read of it. I had forgotten that in addition to the main theme of puberty and friends at that age, Margaret is trying to decide if she is interested enough to join her father‘s Jewish faith or her mother‘s Christian one.
I enjoyed watching the neighbor's dog playing this morning. Missed my photo opportunity, so this is a web photo.
