I didn't think this was quite as funny as some of the other Junie B. books, but my six year old son thought it was hilarious. It has everything he could want: a worm, ants, a dead fly, and a dead fish.

It's a good book. It's funny because Junie B.'s gramma goes fishing and catches four fish. Junie B. thinks they will be pets. She needs one for pet day at school! Her mother and daddy have different ideas. It's pretty funny.

well all i would say is i wouldn't stoop soooo low that i would have to bring a frozen fish stick to school for pet day. well maybe i would.... if i was in the mood for a laugh. because that's exactlty what Junie b. did but mistakenly but she didn't know that a fish stick wasnt a pet so that counts right. well acording to her classmates it does count. when it was time for her school to have annual pet day show and tell and Junie b. was pumped. yeah all the way up until she found out that she co

What pet would you bring to school if Mrs. Brown said you needed to bring one? Junie B. Jones must decide on a pet to bring to school. I read Junie B. Jones Smells Something Fishy. The author is Barbara Park.
Junie B. Jones is a young girl. Mrs, that’s really her name, is Junie B’s teacher. Mrs told the class that Monday is “Pet Day,” everyone was happy. Junie B. was going to bring her dog, but the teacher said they could not bring cats or dogs. Junie B. was really sad, but s More...

This is another fun book in the Junie B. Jones series. Our girls tend to prefer books with lots of pictures, but they will sit and listen to these chapter stories. It's a great introduction to chapter books. I sometimes cringe at her choice of words and inaccurate grammar, but it sounds very authentically like a young 5-6 year old and it's sincere.

Junie B. Jones is just hilarious and holds our interest throughout. I do tend to conjugate my verbs appropriately when I read aloud to my kids, (something Junie does inappropriately sometimes) because it bothers me a bit. It doesn't happen that much though, the story is still inventive, creative and just plain fun!

My nephews LOVE the Junie B. books and I finally found out why! I read this one to Cameron today and was laughing out loud. The way Junie B. speaks is hysterical. They brought several on vacation and I do believe I will be reading them all...and perhaps catching up on more of them next time I visit them in MN!

I may be too old for Junie B Jones books...but I have to admit, that when I read them to my kids I LAUGH MY HEAD OFF! I won't add each one that I've read. We try to read them all. If you like to read to your kids and you want to laugh I recommend these books. They totally crack me up.

This book is laugh-out-loud funny. Junie B. has a hard time coming up with a pet to bring for pet day, since she can't bring her dog. She has several ideas, which don't turn out that well (or her parents don't agree with). Finally she finds the "most well-behaved pet" and brings it in.

I love all of the Junie B. books, but this is my favorite. She is so funny!! She does get a little mouthy sometimes, and her grammar isn't fabulous, but she is a lot like a lot of the kids that are kindergarten and first grade and that's what makes her wonderful.

Junie B is always great for a quick and entertaining read. You can sit down and take it all in in 1/2 hour and love every moment. They must be more entertaining for adults to read than for kids, since you can see the humor in so much that she says.

This is my favorite Junie B. Jones so far. Loved it. We (my daughter and I) laughed so hard. Junie B. is desperate to find a pet for pet day and ends up being the most creative student in Room Nine.

This book is brimming with all of the amazing and original humor that characterizes some of Barbara Park's best work. You'll find a dozen or more real laugh-out-loud moments in the pages of this short story, a story that gives a good look at the hilarity that comes from the mind of Junie B. Jones.
I think that everyone will find some comedic moments in this book to be able to appreciate, regardless of age, and that just might be the most impressive element of Junie B. Jones Smells Som More...

This loud-mouthed, opinionated and usually crabby girl is really starting to get on my nerves. However, I am sure small children will be delighted as she tries to capture a racoon, leash a pet goldfish and, eventually, succeeds in convincing her teacher, Mrs., that a fish stick could be a pet. Her ALL CAPS OUTBURSTS aside, she's fairly lovable and very readable for the beginning chapter-books level student, grandchild, or sister. I don't think boys will have any interest.

I love these books because they are so entertaining. each one gets better and better. this one is about pet day at school. Junie B is in trouble because you arent aloud to bring a dog and thats all she has, so she must improvise. she has her grandma help her and they come up with some crazy ideas, but none of them are what Junie b is wanting. Eventually she gets a great idea and gets a prize for having most well behaved pet. This is a great read for 2nd-5th graders

I remember reading this book in about 2nd or 3rd grade and it just had me laughing so hard I was crying. Honestly, I still read it and have a good chuckle. Who can't laugh at a kindergarten class having Pet Day but Mrs. won't allow the kindergarteners to bring cats or dogs? What's Junie B. to do? This book is just another classic book you just have to read to appreciate it properly. It's cute and funny and it is a nice quick read in those 30 minutes before school.

This book is about Junie B Jones. She yells a lot. She wants to take a dead fish to school because it is shiny. No one else wants it. Her grandmother caught it. After she realized it was dead, Junie B Jones brought a fishstick instead. Nobody said anything. The reason this happened is because everyone brought a pet or picture to school.

The story shows how children want to be pride of their pets. Junie B. wants to make sure the she has a pet to take to school, even if she has to catch one. This is a good example of how children really want to participate in classroom activities because it makes them feel like they are part of the class. This is a transitional book for lower grades.

i'm not the best reader but i do love to read these types of books... though its kinda hard to keep on track and not skip books in the sereis, because of which books are in stock. this would be one of my first books that i didnt go talk to a friend to instead.. i love her reactions and aditudes.

This book is hilarious about Junie's pet day at school. She wants to bring in her pet but the problem is that there are no dogs allowed and that is the only type of pet she has! It is just as cute as all of the Junie B. Jones and with them written as though a child is telling the story, they can never get old!
