Junie has lost her mittens. The lost mittens are not in the lost and found. She does find a pen that writes different colors and she decides to keep it instead of turning it in to lost and found. Later she finds the crook who has found her mittens and gets them back. Then she decides to turn in the colorful pen to the lost and found.

I liked the chapter book because it shows students why we have a lost and found box. There are times when we are forgetful or careless and loose things, but honesty by using the lost and found box can help us to recover lost items. Moral of story is that finders keepers, loosers weepers is not a rule.

I would have the children play a game where we loose items and put it in the lost and found box in class. We can also discuss where the lost and found box is located in the school.
