I thought this book was excellent. The protagonist, Junie is portrayed as a kindergardener with attitude. She has a humorous side and a serious side that is would be appealing to children. The author's style is remarkable. The sentences are short and simple to understand. I felt sorry for Junie when she was at "richie nana's" house, because she was afraid to make a mess when doing anything. Plus, she was made to feel as an outsider that wasn't allowed to play as a young child does.

This is the first Junie B. Jones I read (when I was 6).
I have now read all of them,but the most I like was this book.
This book is funny,because Junie B and her friends always did some funny things.You just cannot imagine.
All kids will like it.

My daughter is 6 and I read her Junie B. Jones books even when she's not around. Junie B. and my daughter are just alike, especially with the "yeah, like only..." I can't wait to own ALL the books! They're great for a rainy, big people's, veg-out day - or when you just need a good laugh.

My daughter love Junie B. And she hasn't started hanging out at the pool hall trying out tailor mades like cigarette fiends just because the writing copies the often (gasp) incorrect grammar of a small child.

Don't worry. There ain't no trouble in River City. Read Junie B with your kids. You'll all have a good time.

My grandaughter and I read this together out loud and her grandpa and brother started listening and enjoyed it as much as we did. I am going to print out the rules for "staying over" to give to all my nieces and nephews and their parents...we laughed and laughed and read them over and over. It is a good enforcement for the "grass is always greener" and Olivia looks at this nanna in a new light. Lucille's nanna ended up scaring Olivia when she was so picky about everything in her house. We are ordering several more of the books and have called the library asking them to order them for their readers.

My boys love Junie B! Yeah her grammar isn't perfect and she says some things we may not want our kids to hear, but my boys love these. I find them funny and becasue they are written at my 6 year old's level he really relates. What is most important to me is that the three of us can curl up in bed a read a few chapters each night and if I say it's bed time let's read Jumie B they go get ready with no hassles. As parents we all know that reaction is priceless as is the joy of reading together.

Her name is Junie B. Jones. The B. stands for Beatrice. Except, Junie doesn't like Beatrice. She just likes B. That's all.
In this Junie B. Jones story, one of a "million bizillon," Junie and Grace are invited over to Lucille's rich grandmother's house for a sleep over. Junie is beyond excited. She humorously packs her bags and passes the time, just waiting for Lucille's Nana's Cattle Act to come pick her up.
Once she is at Lucille's house, hyper-active Junie doesn't know what to do with herself. She wants to have fun, yet obey her parent's rules for spending the night as a guest.
At dinner, Junie seems to do everything possible to upset Lucille's Nana. Junie's excuses and cover-ups are simply hilarious.
In the end, everything comes to a comic conclusion. A-OK!
To me, the Junie B. Jones series is annoyingly adorable. I think that children from ages 6-10 would enjoy the silly adventures that Junie puts her friends, Lucille and "that" Grace through. I loved this book. I recommend it to any one. I guarantee that they will find Junie a witty, lovable character.

This book is about a girl who might be going to a sleepover at her friend Lucille's house. Junie B. is very happy when she finds out that she can go. My favorite part is when her mother and father tell her the rules that she has to follow in order to go to the sleepover. Read to find out if she has a good time. I would recommend this book to third graders because it is a great book.

Junie B.'s friend Lucille had a sleepover party, and she can't wait can't wait! Lucille lives in her rich grandmother's mansion. Before her parents would let her go, Junie B. had to learn all the rules of spending the night. Like no running, no head butting and no talking back. Of course Junie B. finds a way to get into trouble.
This was my first Junie B. Jones book and I loved it. The way Barbara Park twists the language around in the book makes it that much more enjoyable to read. The character of Junie B. is very well written and her friends balance out the flow of the book quite nicely. I am sure any girl could find one Junie. B characters that they can relate to.
I think the author's message in writing this story is to have a fun time with your friends but to always be polite and follow the rule or you could get into trouble.

Junie B. Jones is an inspiring, good book. This book is about Junie B.Jones going to her friends houes for a sleep over and it`s at her rich nanas houes. In second grade I got invited to a sleep over at a girls nanas houes but I did not get to go. I think many 6-8 year-olds will enjoy this book.
