Beverly Cleary: Great Childhood Author

When I saw the brief news flash announcing Beverly Cleary's death at age 104, I could immediately name several of her books even after more than 50 years: "Beezus and Ramona", "Henry and Ribsy", "Fifteen", "Ellen Tebbits", "Otis Spofford" (where I saw the word "Swiss chard" for the first time); and "Jean and Johnny". 

It makes me want to read all of them again.
