Review: This is an excellent example of realistic fiction because although it is not a true story first graders do call each other names, have parties, and like to choose favorites.

Setting: The setting is a backdrop setting because first graders everywhere have attitude issues.

Media: Pencil Sketches

This is a good example of realistic fiction because students are often apprehensive at the beginning of the school year. Also, riding the school bus can be nerve racking and also have conflicts. Finally, many students end up getting glasses in early elementary years as well. ( )

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. ( )

Junie B. Jones

Book description

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
