Walking with Ramona: Exploring Beverly Cleary's Portland

Autor Laura O. Foster
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 mar 2027
Now in its third edition, this most unusual guidebook invites you to walk the very sidewalks that Beverly Cleary walked and climb the very school steps that Beverly climbed. You'll see the grocery parking lot where Ramona got stuck in the mud, the park lawn where Henry Huggins hunted nightcrawlers, and the real Portland street that became Klickitat Street. Bestselling walking guide author Laura O. Foster brings to life what 1920s and 1930s Portland was like for the 'girl from Yamhill' who went on to become an internationally beloved author. Characters like Ramona and Beezus, Henry and Ribsy, and Ellen and Austine come to life on this three-mile, one-hour-long walking or bicycling route through the Northeast Portland neighborhood where Cleary grew up.
