Dear first-grade journal, Hooray, hooray! This show is musical (that is a play all jumbled together with singing and dancing, I believe). And what do you know! It’s all about me, Junie B. Jones! (The B stands for Beatrice, only I do not like Beatrice. I just like B and that’s all.) This is the bestest musical ever, I tell you! It’s got loads of funny songs, and it’s based on a bunch of books this lady, Barbara Park, wrote about me and the things I do in first grade! Like when I meet new friends (like Herb and José, but not that tattle-tale May), and I get to help my friend, the cafeteria lady! Love, Junie B. Jones
Junie has been a perennial favorite around our house. Try and get out and check back with me, tell me how it was!
