I found this book to be very funny. I especially liked the part when Junie didn't think that copying May's homework was cheating. I really like all of Barbara Park's books.

Junie B Jones is a very funny kid in all of the books that is why I am going to read all of new and old series of the Junie B Jones books . I think that Junie B Jones is a real kid that is really really really funny.

My 6 yr old is in 1st grade this year, and I've been searching for chapter books we can read each night for bed. We found the Junie B series and they really make us laugh. My daughter knows that Junie B uses words and phrases we do NOT approve of and we do NOT talk like that. I'm comfortable enough in our parenting skills to allow my daughter to cont. on with this series of books. Her behavior and the way she talks and acts hasn't changed simply b/c of a book she reads at nighttime.

This book we just finished last night. It was probably one of my favorites. My daughter knows the word "cheater" but really didn't get the concept I don't think. I guess I never even really thought to explain it to her. They have spelling tests in school and she didn't really understand why the teacher always was telling them to cover up their papers...now she knows. She knows EXACTLY what cheating is, and the different forms of cheating...(cheating when noone is looking and cheating even if someone allows you to)...and i truly believe she will NEVER cheat. When i read one of the final chapters about Junie B getting some "help" from a friend on a spelling test my daughter immediatly covered her eyes and screamed out NO!!!!!!!!!! So, she got it ;)

My granddaughter is in first grade and thoroughly enjoys this series of books. The author's talent for relating to young school-aged children is apparent on the first page of each book.

I love this book, being 8, its hard not to like it. I like these books becuase Junie is so funny, and cute, so stop saying " I think that this book is terrible!" and " I think that this is not a good lesson for kids" blah blah blah, kids like these, and if you guys dont, stop reviewing! Man, give us kids a break!!!!!

I had ordered several Junie B books from Amazon.com. for Christmas. They were received less than a week later. When my granddaughter opened them on Christmas Eve, she was thrilled.

It is a pleasure to deal with Amazon because their products are reasonably priced and they are on target with delivary. In addition, if something has to be returned, they advise you via e-mail that the item has been received and the credit
is awarded on your credit card. Amazon makes Christmas shopping a lot more pleasurable.

I liked the book because Junie B. Jones was always getting in trouble at school. First, Junie B.Jones copied Mays homework. This caused her to get in trouble with Mr.Scary and her Mom and Dad. The problem was that Junie B. Jones was a cheater pants. She does learn her lesson and decides never to cheat again. But that didn't last long because Herb helped her on the spelling test. She cheated again! Two days in a row she cheated. Herb and Junie B. couldn't sleep that night. So to make themselves feel better they went and told on themselves to Mr. Scary. She got in trouble again and was given another talk about cheating by her Mom and Dad. But the best thing of all was that Mr. Scary trusted her again because of her honesty.

I liked the book that I read because Junie B. Jones was always getting in trouble. I thought that the book I read was a great book because what happened was Junie B. copied May's homework and she got in trouble by her teacher and her parents. I recommend this book for grades K-6.

First of all, all first graders are cheaters! They have to learn to not cheat somewheres. I think this book is a good source of teaching children. Children can enjoy reading this book as they learn that cheating is not something any child should continue doing. They should learn it is not tolerated from parents or any adults and teachers. I like the way the lesson was taught here in "Cheater Pants". We have laughed a lot in this series of books!

My family and I have truely enjoyed this book! I highly recommend this book for parents to get for their child.

My daughter is a great fan of Junie B. She has read almost all her books and it has been great reading practice for her.
