Praise for Barbara Park’s Junie B. Jones series
“Park, one of the funniest writers around . . . brings her
refreshing humor to the beginning chapter-book set.”—Booklist
“Park convinces beginning readers that Junie B.—and reading—are
lots of fun.”—Publishers Weekly
“Junie’s swarms of young fans will continue to delight in her
unique take on the world. . . . A hilarious, first-rate
read-aloud.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Junie B. Jones is a feisty six-year-old with an endearing penchant
for honesty.”—Time
“Park is truly a funny writer. Although Junie B. is a
kindergartner, she’s sure to make middle graders laugh out
loud.”—School Library Journal
“Barbara Park captured, with authenticity and heart, the voice of a
six-year-old child. Junie B. is a spunky little girl who is naive,
lacks an attention span, has a vivid imagination, quick temper, a
strong sense of injustice, and an inability to understand subtlety
or nuance.”— Book Riot
