Beezus and Ramona

My daughter loves this book - we've re-read it several times now!

I read this long ago as a child, but just listened to the audio version with my kids. I have fond memories of making a diorama of the cake scene in this book for a project in school. :)
My kids loved this book! It's so fun introducing a new generation to Ramona.

She was nothing but a BRAT. A horrid creature, if you will. It is set in, what I believe is, the 50s so of course things were drastically different but this is ridiculous. There were something I was okayish about. Like Ramona did get punished but honestly... it could have been a bit sterner. It seemed like Ramona never learned her lesson because people were way too soft on the brat. Another thing that bothered me was how Beezus had to 1. somewhat raise Ramona. 2. Was told to basically suck it up because the fucking demon child was sooo young. 3. Ramona still got shit even when she didn't deserve it.We need to normalize hating siblings. Who fucking care if she is blood? Second the stupid as fuck aunt who got Ramona a present so she didn't feel left out? After all the shit she did? How trash. If you do this you are horrible. It is equivalent to those HORRIBLE parents who sit back like fucking idiots and watch their demon child blow out someone's birthday candles before them, or hell even at all. Then just laugh. Crawl in a hole and NEVER come back out.
