I feel this was hard to get through and was not as funny as the other books I read in this series.

Junie B. Jones is finally graduating Kindergarten and she wants to wear her cap and gown all the time! As a first grader does though keeping that white cap and gown clean does not go as planned. This book goes through Junie B Jones life as a 1st grader and her graduation day. I LOVE Junie B Jones books. The way that Barbara Park writes so well from the point of view of a young child is a big component of this book in my opinion. These books are funny for younger kids, and the things that Junie B gets herself into are funny, but relatable for kids as well. I wouldn't read this as an educational book but having this in my room library, or even using it as a "fun" read for a brain break from lessons would be an awesome idea. (

I like this book because I love anything with Junie B. (

This book would be great to teach voice because Juni B. Jones is the narrator and because she is in first grade, her grammar is not always correct which is important to show students that it is okay to tastefully incorporate incorrect grammar for a character. This book also has a theme about nervousness which many students can relate to. (

Book description

Junie B. Jones has just turned six and is looking forward to her kindergarten graduation, but when grape juice stains the white gown she couldn't resist trying on, she is afraid graduation is ruined.After celebrating her sixth birthday, Junie B.’s mom tucks her in and reminds her she is graduating from kindergarten on Friday. Her mom reassures her this is an exciting event and she is ready to go to first grade the following year. The week at school is filled with graduation preparation, including a poem writing activity that ends with Junie B. in the principal’s office. . But Junie B., being Junie B., is sure that just one peek on the way home won't soil her gown. And then she must show off to her stuffed animals with a lot of whirling and skipping, which of course makes her thirsty. But guess what? "Grape juice can go wrong."
