Summary: Junie Jones Is Not a Crook
Review: Book review
By Rebecca The book that I am reading is Junies B. Jones Is Not a Crook. Her grandfather gave her some mittens. It wasn't her birthday or Christmas or Valentines Day. This is a funny story.

Summary: junie b. jones not a crook
Review: Book Review By Cassidy I am reading Junie B Jones. So far in the book. She got new mittens. She liked them so much because they were made. Out of fur I would think that people should read this book because it is the best book in the world I wish everyone could read it. They would really like it everyone I think will be able to read it.

Summary: Horrible Language Model For Children
Review: While this book has a good moral (you should turn in things you find, otherwise it's stealing), the language this book models is awful. Here are some sentences from the book: "And I runned all over the playground. Then she holded my hand. Somebody stoled my mittens. I weared a grin as soon as I saw this wonderful thing. All of a sudden my face lighted up." While some people may think that Junie B. Jones's mangling of past tense verbs is cute, it does not help children learn proper verb tense. Also, there's a nice stereotype in this book where Junie B. Jones is looking for somebody with a tattoo, because that will indicate who the crook is. Parents and teachers, don't even waste your time.
