Beverly Cleary is such a wonderful author and person. I was suprised at her upbringing, it was such a different time period she grew up in. While she doesn't sugar coat it, she brings to life this time and place....so less complicated then today. In my mind she's a down to earth hero. I enjoyed reading her autobiograhy and thank you for having it available.

Great story about early 20th Century life in the Willamette Valley and N. Portland. Beverly Cleary is a renowned author of wonderful children's books and in this title writes her detailed memories of growing up here 100 years ago, complete with her family photos. Very interesting and engaging!
