Happy Birthday!

100 years young: Beverly Cleary truly is an inspiration. 

Selling more than 85 million copies of her books, she created a legion of happy and eager readers. 

Beezus and Ramona, Ralph S. Mouse and Dear Mr. Henshaw are a huge reason why I write today.
Who knew I'd now be living a hop, skip and jump from the infamous Klickitat Street?
