This coloring/activity book was created in collaboration with my hometown, Yamhill, Oregon's downtown association, YDA. Yamhill is where beloved children's book author Beverly Cleary lived as a young child until her family moved to Portland. Many of her first characters in her books came from her early childhood here in Yamhill, including Ribsy. Each spring, Yamhill celebrates Mrs. Cleary with a children's story and coloring contest. This book was created as a tribute to her and the joy through her many stories.
