I wouldn't allow my opinion to prevent my students from reading the book, and I would still use the book to encourage independent reading for my early elementary readers (1st-3rd grade students). While my opinion about this book is strong, I can only assume that some of my students would be entertained by this book as I know so many of my daughter's friends have read every book in the extended series. My reading conferences will be much more effective if I too have read most of my students' independent reading books. Reading this book reminds me that not all children's literature is great, and that it is important to have read the books my students are reading. I would not choose to have this series in my classroom library as I think there are many more worthy realistic fiction stories that have a meaningful and relevant message for young readers.
While I understand the book can be a funny account of a realistic fictional character, I don't appreciate the way Junie feels she can behave among peers and adults.
I have seen this book in many classroom libraries in 2nd through 5th grade for students to choose for independent reading time. Jones, but her everyday experiences could be true. This is a realistic fiction book as the story is not a true account of a real girl named Junie B. This is a theme I do think is relevant to many first graders. Junie not only is adjusting to a new classroom with a new teacher, but she is having difficulty reading the chalkboard and struggles through the idea of needing glasses. We both agreed that this book didn't have the characteristics of a good story. My daughter picked up on these selfish and ugly qualities as well. Scary), but I was shocked at how disrespectful and bratty Junie B. Not only did I not like the story of how Junie begins first grade with a new teacher (Mr. I thought starting off the series in first grade with this book was perfect, but I was very disappointed.
Jones series has always been recommended to me to encourage my daughter to love reading independently.
