In class, we started reading one of Beverly Cleary's books called Ramona Quimby, Age 8 . In chapter two, Ramona's teacher, Mrs. Whaley, introduces D.E.A.R time to her third graders. During this daily thirty minute period, students are allowed to read anything they like.
To honor Beverly Cleary's birthday, April 12 is officially called National
Drop Everything And Read
