Beezus and Ramona

This is the third book in the series--- Ramona is four and Beezus is nine --- and it's mostly about Beezus's very mixed feelings about her little sister who is noisy, naughty demanding and frequently exasperating. Is she really supposed to love her all the time? Life with the Quimbys (not so different from many families here) in all its moods is captured with accuracy and humour, and the final note is of security and reassurance. Highly recommended for all older sisters (or brothers).
