Junie B. Jones and Her Big Fat Mouth by Barbara Park

4.0

People who say that Junie B. isn't a good role model or a good thing for children are very mistaken, misleading, and WRONG. To pick on her spelling/grammar?? She's in KINDERGARTEN. She's mouthy because she's THAT GIRL. She's honest! Junie B is relatable, fun, and REAL. To challenge these books is to challenge the late Barbra Park and I believe that Barbara Park will forever be that girl for creating such a fun, lovable, understandable Junie B. When she stood up and said that 'girls could be anything they wanted to be' in this book I wanted to cheer! I WILL be reading more. Junie B. has CHARACTER, which is what a LOT of characters today are missing!!
