Beverly Cleary Quote
Mother, said Ramona urgently. This time she stepped into the hall. Unless we get a ladder (Go back to your room, Ramona) and break the window so we can unlock it, Mother continued, speaking with one sentence inside another, the way grown-ups so often did with Ramona around. But Mother, insisted Ramona even more urgently. I have to— Oh, dear, I might have known, sighed Mother.
