Customer Reviews

This book is great!!!!!

This is a wonderful book, sure the grammar isn't very good but that's what makes the book funny.I have all the Junie B. Jones books and love them all. Great for children who are just learning to read!

Thanks to Junie B., my students love to read!!!

I have read the reviews of this book below, and am astonished at the poor reviews. Junie B. Jones is supposed to have poor grammar, as many, many 1st graders do. The great thing is, as a school teacher, I get to hear my students correcting her grammar. Children learn by doing- Junie B. makes them hear her mistakes and correct them and laugh at how silly some of th mistakes are. Also, of course she wants to be the center of attention, as do 99.98% of the rest of the 6-year-olds in the world. That is yet another thing that makes these books so appealing to children- especially children who are between 5 & 9. The most important part of learning to read is actual reading. It doesn't matter what you read- just read. My students love to read Junie B., so what kind of teacher would I be if I told them not to read something they like, but rather read something they don't like. How many would still want to read? Few. If your child loves Junie B., don't make the mistake of restricting his or her reading because of grammar or Junie's desire to be the center of attention. Children become fluent and effective readers by reading as much as possible. Encourage your child to read what he or she loves.

Junie B. First Grader One Man Band

I LOVE this book and Junie B. She's so funny!I LOVE it because I think it's hilarious when she kicks a watering can cow full of water and her piggy toe hurts! I think this is a great book,you should read it!

Junie B. Jones Juggles Food

Its my favorite. I love this book. Meanie kids are throwing food at her, but Junie B. juggles the food.

Junie B. is still #1

Barbara Park has done it again. Junie B. Jones is at her funniest in the newest book in the "First Grader" series. When she bangs up her piggy toe, it looks like Junie B. will be unable to participate in her class' kickball game. But leave it to the spunky 6 year-old to find a way to make herself shine nevertheless. I highly recommend this book as one of the most amusing in both series (second only to Junie B. Jones Smells Something Fishy).
