Line 1: {{creator}} [[File:Beverly Cleary 1938.jpg\|frame\|Beverly Cleary's yearbook photo, UC Berekely 1938 Yearbook]] ~~Beverly Cleary is an American children's author.~~ '''Beverly Atlee Cleary''', née '''Bunn''' (April 12, 1916 – March 25, 2021), was an American children's author. Her largest and best-known collection of books (too loose-knit to be really a "series", although there is a chronological order) involves a group of children that includes Henry Huggins (and his dog Ribsy), Henry's friend Beatrice "Beezus" Quimby and her little sister Ramona, and Ramona's friend Howie Kemp. [[Ramona Quimby\|Ramona]] is the break-out star character of the series. They were adapted into a TV series in the 1980s (called ''[[Ramona ~~Quimby~~ (TV series)\|Ramona ~~Quimby~~]]''), and a movie (called ''[[Ramona and Beezus (film)\|Ramona and Beezus]]'') was released in 2010. Another well-known series by Beverly Cleary begins with ''[[The Mouse and the Motorcycle]]'', about a mouse who befriends a lonely boy and discovers a useful but never-quite-explained ability to [[Surprisingly Functional Toys\|drive toy vehicles as if they were real]].
