It is the greatest day of Ramona's life. She is in kindergarten and she loves her teacher, Miss Binney. She like a little boy named Davy so much she wants to kiss him. She's fascinated by Susan's beautiful reddish brown curls that bounce like springs when she runs. Ramona is thrilled about all the new things to see.
So how in the world does Ramona get in trouble? Why is she sitting on a bench when the rest of the class is playing Gray Duck? Why does Davy run as fast as he can when Ramona comes near him? And how does Ramona disrupt the whole class during rest time? Well, anyone who know Ramona knows that she is never a pest on purpose.
