Junie B. Jones and the Mushy Gushy Valentime (Junie B. Jones #14)

Junie B. Jones is so excited about Valentines Day. She did not expect to get a mushy gushy valentine from a secret admirer. ( )

I like reading about Junie B. Jones, however I do not care for the way these books are written. The child talks like a child, and it is written that way. It is a difficult text for the new/beginning reader. This book is about a kindergardener or first grader and is at a third grade reading level. I feel the stories are cure, and my daughter who is in the third grade enjoys them, but I think the character could be a little older like the Harry the Horrible series. That being said I would use this book as a read aloud, or suggest for young readers who want a challenging text. I would also have to teach how writers use the ' apostophe to fill in a word when a sound is missing. The story is short, so young readers could be sucessful reading this text. ( )

this book is realy good. ( )

This book is my favorite Barbara Parks book in the whole world. It has a very shocking ending that I loved. ( )

Junie B. Jones and the Mushy Gushy Valentine is a wonderful book to read to young elementary students. In this story, Junie B. Jones has a secret admirer on Valentine's Day, and is determined to find out who it is!
