She loses both them best friends from Kindergarten; of course you get all the spunk and humor that is Junie B dbhutch | Jun 28, 2009 |   intermediate, or read to primary This is a good example of realistic fiction. The story is made up but it could happen. The characters are very really and in an accurate modern setting. The character of Junie B. is developed through the first person narrative. She tells us what she is thinking and doing. It lets us really get to know her as she goes through the beginning of the school year. (  )bsturdevant06 | Oct 28, 2008 | Genra: Realistic Fiction Age Appropriateness: Primary Review: Junie B. Jones has reached the first grade and is no longer excited about what a big step it is. Throughout the book she loses friends that she had in Kindergarten. She is honest about how she is feeling at any given moment even at the risk of getting into trouble. This is a great example of realistic fiction because Junie B is not real but rather the issues that she faces are very much a reality. Changing teachers, getting glasses for the first time and making new friends are very real issues that children deal with. Media: Pencil bbrown07 | Oct 15, 2008 | First grade, as Junie B. fears, is different from kindergarten. Both of her best friends have deserted her, and the girl she sits next to, May, is aweful. She soon discovers three new friends- the boys who sit near her. When she has to get glasses, one of them comes to the rescue by telling how cool they are.

Amazon.com (ISBN 0375815163, Paperback)It had to happen. The spunkiest sass mouth in room 9 finally graduated from kindergarten. Now the inimitable, irrepressible Junie B. is a first grader--at last! ("My name is Junie B. I think I have mentioned that to you before... B., B., B., B., B.")The 18th installment in Barbara Park's popular beginning chapter-book series puts our temperamental heroine into a brand-new class where she has to make brand-new friends. And as if that weren't hard enough, her brand-new teacher, Mr. Scary ("He made that name up, I believe," Junie writes in a journal assignment), figures out that she needs eyeglasses. Will all the other kids laugh at her? Will that obnoxious Excellent-plus-getting May become even more obnoxious? With Park's solid track record, the appeal of Junie B. just can't be doubted-she can be a good friend to readers her age, which is a difficult grade level to find fun books for. And even kids who don't need glasses will likely still giggle along as Junie B. plays "the E game" (an eye test) with the nurse, and kids who do need glasses will find themselves with a strong (if a little scared at first) ally. (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:16 -0400) The first test round has been closed. Visit the Open Shelves Classification group for details. |
