Losing teeth happens to all children. Some children lose their teeth faster than other children do. This book would be great to start reading in the middle of kindergarten.

Junie B. Jones is just about ready to loose her front, top baby tooth. The suspense is on as she really doesn't want to loose it because then the "Tooth Fairy" will come. She has a problem with the tooth fairy because she can't believe someone would come and give you money for something they would just throw away. Junie doesn't understand what the tooth fairy does with the teeth. She comes up with a great use for those teeth as the book comes to a close.

After reading the first Junie B book, I decided I wanted to read this chapter book also because of the interesting character of Junie B. Although this book made the banned book list, I feel many of the emotions Junie B expierences in the story relate to how read first graders feel. I think it is important the students are aware that their feelings are known and can be dealt with in a postitive way with adults like Junie's mother does.

This is a silly story about a gregarious first grader who is the first in her class to lose an upper tooth. Her story becomes even sillier while she is convinced that the tooth fairy is actually a witch. This book is crass and contains many grammatical errors. I cringed the whole time I read it.

Junie B. Jones isn't sure about loosing teeth. She thinks she'll look like her silly Uncle who's missing teeth and appear odd. Next she begins to worry that the tooth fairy is really witch! There is some silly grammer but tha'ts what makes it funny. Eventually Junie figures out what the fairy does with the teeth! ( )
