Line 70:
* [[To Be Lawful or Good]]: There are several instances where Ramona comes to realize that doing the right thing might mean getting in trouble. Should she help Davy, who's struggling with his writing, or "keep [her] eyes on [her] own paper" like the teacher said? When instructed to be quiet and stay in place during a wedding, should she point out where the missing wedding ring is that everyone's looking for, or just keep quiet like she was told to and therefore prolong the search?
* [[Unreliable Illustrator]]: In the reissues with the new artist, the picture doesn't completely match what the text says in a few instances when characters are specifically described wearing a certain outfit, and the illustration contradicts it. This includes modernization - for example, Ramona is said to use rollerskates, but the illustration depicts rollerblades, which are more modern.
* [[Where the Hell Is Springfield?]]: Averted in these and the Henry Huggins series; they all explicitly take place in [[The Other Rainforest|Portland, Oregon]] (Cleary's former hometown). Local streets and landmarks (as well as Mount Hood) are mentioned, and the city of Portland responded by placing statues of the characters in a park. The two ''Ellen Tebbits'' books take place on the ''other side'' of Portland.
* [[Your Other Left]] / [[WhosWho's On First?]]: "Do I turn left?"/"Right" happens in ''Ramona and Her Mother'', when Beezus is giving her mother directions to get to the hairstylist's.
