What a wonderful find this interview is for me! 1979 was around the time I was a child avidly reading everything available by Beverly Cleary. So interesting to hear from the author in person. I just love her.
I disagree completely (that she is full of herself)! At that point in her life Ms. Cleary was already a wildly successful author, and she answers the myriad questions asked of her as best she can, with warmth and humor. She is very ladylike and formal, as people generally were back then, especially in a public setting. They were not expected to be relatable and casual like today.

That’s the girl from across the hall! Spider-Man 2 & 3 🤣 7:20
I’m kidding
Nice to watch for ASMR, but this woman is full of herself (Beverly Cleary).
Indeed! 🤣
why would you say so?
