Happy #DropEverythingAndReadDay! Nobody wrote kid emotions like #BeverlyCleary. I still go back to the Ramona books regularly to learn and for cozy nostalgia. I never got to meet her, but I was grateful to find this signed copy on EBay for my collection.

In 1977, I wrote to my favorite author Beverly Cleary (Ramona Quimby! Henry Huggins!), and she wrote back! I have one small box of keepsakes from my childhood. Somehow most things important to me got lost in my lifetime, but luckily I still have this letter. Happy heavenly birthday! #beverlycleary

An unfortunate fact that as you get older gifts become a little more practical -- and a little less exciting.
