The sign that says NO GIRLS ALLOWED -- THIS MEANS YOU especially means Ramona Quimby. Lately Ramona has been following Henry on his newspaper route, embarrassing him in front of Henry's customers.

I think Beverly Cleary did a good job writing Henry and the Club House. Henry and the Club House is part of a series of books. This book is about a 11 year old boy who has a paper route. But, some times he forgets his paper route. One day he forgets his route and his mother has to do it. He has lots of problems but his biggest problem his Ramona. Ramona is a four year old girl. Every day Ramona is upto something. Henry has to get an idea to get rid of Ramona. In Henry and the Club House Henry has to deal with Ramona and a clubhouse that he is working on with his two friends Robert and Murph. I think every one from 7-11 should read this book.

I just finished reading Henry and the Clubhouse to my little boy, who will turn six next month. He loves the Henry books (we've read 5 or 6 now), but I think I love them even more. My mother read these to me when I was 6 or 7, about 28 years ago, and I hadn't picked them up since. Now, as I read them to my son, every scene comes back to me with all of the humor and warmth that pervade each of Beverly Cleary's books for children. The author has remarkable insight into how the minds of young people work. Reading these books is an absolute delight.

This story takes place in the present during our time in the 21st century, in a little town called Pitchfork, Oregon. Since it is in the 21st century, the setting is important because he would not have all the things he has right now. The reason for it is because back then some people did not have what they wanted. People were always fighting in the United States.

This book is mostly about a ten-year old boy named Henry Huggins. He and some of his friends are building a clubhouse, but Henry also has a paper route to do every afternoon. During his paper route he has trouble with Beezus' little sister, Ramona. She keeps on pestering him and his friends at the clubhouse, also when he is doing his paper route. So he wanted to do something with her so he could fell better.

In my opinion, I really like this book. It's amazing! Sometimes in the story, it makes me want to get excited. Some of the parts make me feel like it is funny and mean at the same time. When I read this book, it reminds me of me and my little brother. I would recommend this book because it's entertaining.

This book is an amazing book. It's about the life of a boy that loves his family and friends. Henry learns to have more friends as he goes through his life. Everyday he delivers newspapers after school. He likes to spend some of his time in the clubhouse he just started to build. His clubhouse is brown and he is the leader. He loves it when he can play there with his friends.

I liked this book because it has lots of chapters to read. I also liked it because Henry and his friends, who were tired of Ramona and her sister, Beezus, decided to put a sign saying
`'No Girls Allowed''. Another favorite part was when Ramona and her sister didn't care about the sign. They came in the clubhouse anyway. In the end Henry let Ramona and her sister go in the clubhouse.

This book shares an important message that you should try to be friendly to others even if you don't like them. I would recommend this book to others.
