Just Like Beverly: A Biography of Beverly Cleary (Growing to Greatness)

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

As a young girl, Beverly Cleary struggled to learn to read and found most children's books dull and uninteresting. She often wondered if there were any books about kids just like her. With hard work, and the encouragement of her parents and a special teacher, she learned to read and at a young age discovered she had a knack for writing.
