Title: Ramona lacks excitement
Review: I used this book as a read aloud in my 3rd grade classroom, and to put it bluntly, my students found it to be boring. A lot of the language seemed "dated." During Cleary's attempts at humor, I found my students staring at me with "I don't get it" looks on their faces. I have found the whole Ramona series to be a little disappointing. A better choice for 3rd graders is the Fudge series by Judy Blume.To put it bluntly, my 3rd graders found this book to be boring. I used this book as a read aloud in my classroom.
