  1. Well some of the books I liked for Catherine are Skippyjon Jones about a cat that thinks he is a taco bell dog. The lauguage is very cute. Ramona Quimby age 8, The Amelia Bedelia books, the baseball one is very funny. The Captian Underpants books,and How I became a pirate all of them are personal favorites of mine. And by the way Captain underpants has a very cool web site.

  2. Those all sound good. I liked Ramona and Amelia Bedelia when I was Catherine's age too. I will have to check out Captain Underpants.

  4. I got some good books at the Barns and Noble. They were out of Ramona Quimby age 8 but she ordered it for me. We got three Amelia Bedelia anventures. And Skippyjon Jones and it came with a CD. I got Carolynn a Judy Blume,Otherwise Know as Shiela the Great. And a very popular book, the book store lady says they alwyas sell out of, called the Day my butt went Psycho. Yep it is based on a true story. I am saying they had boring books when I was young.
