Publishers Weekly

K-Gr 3-Junie B. Jones is at it again. The rambunctious kindergartner takes listeners along as she discovers the wonders of the lost and found, cuts her bangs, has a fish stick for a pet, and learns how the rich live. This collection includes unabridged readings of Barbara Park's Junie B. Jones Is Not a Crook; Junie B. Jones Smells Something Fishy; Junie B. Jones Is a Beauty Shop Guy; and Junie B. Jones Is a Party Animal (Random, 1997, 1998). Since the stories are written in the first person, they lend themselves beautifully to an oral presentation. Lana Quintal's winsome, youthful voice tells Junie's marvelous misadventures with enthusiasm and expression. The collection is well-organized, with each book taking up one side of a cassette. Audio quality is excellent. Junie is a likeable heroine whose precocious naivet appeals to both children and adults. This will be a great addition to classroom listening centers, and a good "listen in the car" collection as well.- Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary School, Federal Way, WA Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
