My Favorite Children's Book

As a child, I had trouble sitting down and reading a book, but there was one book series that always intrigued me to read, Junie B. Jones. Junie B. Jones is about the adventures of a spunky Kinder-gardener written by Barbara Park and illustrated by Denise Brunkus. This series was easy for me to read because the stories of Junie B. were always interesting and humorous.

This series follows the tale of Junie B. through her kindergarten experiences and then follows her through first grade. Every story entails a humorous plot of Junie growing up, from her rides on a stinky smelly bus or her mushy gushy valentine. There is a plot that every younger readers will enjoy. Though Junie's stubborn and defiant attitude might lower judgement of the book because she isn't a "good role model," her ways are always addressed by the end of each book.

Most new readers don't enjoy reading because they are not reading what interests them. Junie B. Jones is a great series that will teach kids to enjoy reading more. Barbara Parks did a wonderful job of creating a character that will never go unforgotten.
