In my view, this is one of the best books of the series up to this point. Sometimes the Junie B. Jones stories are just very cleverly written and unparalleled in terms of humor quotient, but Junie B. Jones Is a Graduation Girl adds an extra dimension of emotional depth to the narrative, really showing us the qualities about Junie B. that cause us to love her so much. She's more than just a mouthy kindergartner with an uncanny penchant for always putting herself in the middle of hilarious misa

I just love this book so much! Junie B. Jones is a lovable, laughable, and realatable character. Most people were either like her or knew someone that was like her. This is a great book for a read aloud because it is funny, the chapters are short, and students will be able to relate and engage with the text. This book is not hard to read, but will encourage those who are slow readers. The chapters are small, so students will feel like they are reading a lot more than they actually are. This will

This book marks the end of an era: Junie B. Jones has made it through Kindergarten, and will be moving on to 1st grade. (She's a little bit horrified to learn that 1st grade means a new classroom and a new teacher.) I laughed my way through Kindergarten with her, and was sorry to see her go.
When my younger daughter was in Kindergarten, I would go to school every week and read an entire Junie B. book out loud to the class in one sitting. That class loved this girl. And when it came t More...

A cute way to end the first school year for Junie B. Jones. Our girls enjoy her stories and we are looking forward to her first grade antics.

Very relevant for my child right now (she just graduated from Kindergarten). Junie B. can just never stay out of trouble...very comical.

Junie B. Jones graduating from kindergarten paralleled with my own daughter graduating from kindergarten. My daughter loved hearing about Junie preparing for her graduation ceremony in the auditorium. She also had her own special graduation outfit just like Junie B.(a painted t-shirt that was KEPT AT SCHOOL until parents dropped their kids off for the ceremony. Hmmmmmm......did her teacher read this book and know about Junie B.'s grape juice mess?). My daughter loved seeing the picture where

One of Barbara Park’s Junie B. Jones Series books, Junie B. Jones is a Graduation Girl tells the story of Junie B. Jones getting ready to graduate from kindergarten. An easy read for younger children, the trouble Junie B. gets into will keep children smiling. They can look back and remember their own kindergarten graduation and how important of a time this is for children in kindergarten; they’re growing up!

Junie is funny, irreverent and enjoyable. Ms. Parks creates humorous characters and situations that will have the whole family enjoying these stories. I have recommended Junie B Jones to many parents and young readers. Follow Junie as she begins Kindergarten, rides the smelly school bus or stains her graduation gown with grape juice. Every story is filled with humor and lessons learned.

This was about Junie B. Jones and how she was graduating kindergarten. She was so excited she wanted to show everybody her cap and gown. She then had an accident and spilled grape juice on it. Then everybody in class but different colored polka dots on their caps and gowns to make her feel better. I would use this in class for two different reasons. The first is to show the students they have to listen to their teacher. The second is because the students can help another studnet feel bett

This was a very good book although I'm very sad to see that Junie is growing up and soon she will be a first grader. She certainly has grown up while being in kindergarten and I like that her vocabulary has improved while she was in kindergarten. Junie is worried that she won't see her friends that were in kindergarten with her.

Next to Ramona Junie is just the best! Junie is sure to help early readers over the hump to chapter books. She is totally hilariousl, out-of-control and the coolest kid in books in years.
No one could resist her adventures in school and out.
This experienced primary teacher would never want to teach without Junie B.

This book is very fun and easy for the beginning reader to relate to through the main character and her misdeeds. I love the ending much like the book Crazy Hair Day by Saltzberg, Barney where everyone joins in to support the main character and keep them from feeling singled out on this very special day.

Well Junie b. Jones is the funniest girl ever, probably! You can just ask her teacher Mrs. and the janitor, Gus Vallony! And guess what else? Junie said in one of her books, that Vallony was her favorite luchmeat! So ha! She is the funniest girl ever!

I had never read this books until last summer. My summer camp kids brought this in for me to read during our story time. I fell in love with Junie B. Barbara Park created a very interesting, and humorous character who can not stay out of trouble. Children seem to love these stories and I will be adding them to my classroom library.

She spills grape juice on her gown and she draws polka dots on it. The class starts out drawing dots on their graduation gowns and they are the colorful group.
