    I have been reading Junie B. to my first graders for years. They love her! I love her! I love that we can enjoy this wacky character and I can use her as a teaching tool. We laugh about the hilarious things she does and how we shouldn’t do some of the things that Junie B does. I remind the students that silly Junie B. ends up in the Principals office when she makes bad choices and we certainly don’t won’t that to happen to anyone in our class. When my students are ready to begin reading chapter books themselves, their first choice is, of course, Junie B. Jones.

    We have a Junie B. Jones Day in our classroom. All the students bring their favorite Junie B. book and they come dressed as one of the favorite characters from the book.One of our teachers dresses in the Junie B. costume and she reads one of the books from the collection. It has been one of the students most memorable day of the school year!!!!!

    Junie talks about situations that are familiar to kids and are lots of fun to read. Most kids I’ve worked with in the lower grades really enjoy her, even boys!
