Henry and Ribsy are always getting into scrapes, and don’t know how to get out. This is a funny, humorous story, and easy to laugh about. Can Henry rescue Ribsy? And, will Henry and Ribsy be allowed to stay on the boat with Henry’s father and a neighbor? Ribsy gets himself into yet another scrape, except this time, he might not survive it. Never did Henry think that Ribsy could get into so much trouble! First, Ribsy chews up a policeman’s lunch! Then, Ribsy “attacks” a garbage man! He follows Ramona Quimby around and gets into trouble, even though it is her fault! Finally, after a long time, Henry and Ribsy get to go salmon fishing. His dad says, “OK, but only if you can keep Ribsy out of trouble up to the day we go fishing.” Henry agrees to this, thinking it won’t be hard, because it’s only a month away. Henry wants really badly to be able to go salmon fishing with his father. This book is about a boy named Henry, and his dog Ribsy.

Today’s review will be on “Henry and Ribsy” by Beverly Cleary. (This was a short book, so it will be a short summary.) Jaqueline Rogers has been a professional children's book illustrator for more than twenty years and has worked on nearly one hundred children's books.Hi! I have now finished reading 16 dog books! Here is your 13th book review. Her characters, including Beezus and Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, and Ralph, the motorcycle-riding mouse, have delighted children for generations. Henshaw won the Newbery Medal, and Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and Ramona and Her Father have been named Newbery Honor Books. Cleary's books have earned her many prestigious awards, including the American Library Association's Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, presented to her in recognition of her lasting contribution to children's literature. And so, the Klickitat Street gang was born!

She based her funny stories on her own neighborhood experiences and the sort of children she knew. When a young boy asked her, 'Where are the books about kids like us?' she remembered her teacher's encouragement and was inspired to write the books she'd longed to read but couldn't find when she was younger. Before long, her school librarian was saying that she should write children's books when she grew up. But by third grade, after spending much time in her public library in Portland, Oregon, she found her skills had greatly improved. As a child, she struggled with reading and writing. Beverly Cleary is one of America's most beloved authors.
