4. F AVORITE C HARACTER My favorite character is Ramona Quimby. She is very silly and likes to have fun. She loves to play at the park on the rings. She compares her calluses with her friends. Ramona has a new baby sister, so she helps her mother do things around the house. Ramona is very responsible at home, like when she takes care of her friend Daisy’s cat.

6. W HAT HAPPENS AT THE END At the end of this book Ramona has a party for her 10 th birthday. She goes to the park and invites all of her friends. Ramona invites a girl named Susan who starts to cry because she thinks no one likes her; they only like Ramona. Ramona and her mother make Susan feel better. Ramona’s friends join in and they all end up becoming friends and going to play on the rings.

7. EXTRA The genre of this book is realistic fiction. The poem I picked to represent this book is about friendship the title is “My Friend” by Sammy Lane Sharp. This poem reminds me of the book because it talks about friends, like Ramona and Daisy. This poem talks about depending on a friend, like Ramona. When Ramona takes care of daisy’s cat, she is a dependable friend as written in the poem.

8. My Friend by Sammy Lane Sharp We all need someone To talk to in our life, A friend to whom we run In times of stress or strife A friend who's always there Throughout the years, A friend we know will care And take away our fears. A friend who's always near, Waiting for our call, To wipe away our tears, And lift us when we fall. A loving friend indeed, On whom we can depend To fulfill our every need - Thank you, precious friend
