Summary: The "B" Stands for BOSS!
Comment: I don't think Junie B acts much like a FIRST GRADER. I'm surprised she spelled lots of words right in her journal at school. That has (and STILL) confused/confuses me. I'm 11 and I have some of my School Journals from 1st and 2nd grade. I couldn't spell: Yesterday, muscles, believe, recess, actually, sentences, brought, or teacher. But Junie B spelled ALL of those words right!!! I was sort of shocked. I don't even write entries like THAT in my school journal. Junie B has lost her spunk and her laugh-out-loud antics. All the kindergarten books are better than the Junie B., First Graders. I wish she had her bow back too. Like some of the other people who wrote these reviews, Junie B isn't the same without the big bow on her head. Now a pair of outrageous purple glasses are in its place. Come on, people! They're PURPLE!!! Just like what May had said. Junie B feels like a totally different kid and character now. It's like a brand new series that has NO connection with the kindergarten books, except for when she occasionally mentions friends from kindergarten. I wish Junie B was the same again. And not this new bossy kid. Hey! My brother Carson (he's older than me) figured something out! THE "B" STANDS FOR BOSS!!!! It also stands for: Bully, Big Meanie, Bad Girl, and Blabber-Mouth. She's spoilied and bossy and gets her way a lot. She's getting away with more stuff as a 1st grader. I wish she was still the same...

Summary: I Miss Her...Bring her Back!!!!!
Comment: I agree with the other people writing these reviews. Junie B has grown up too fast and her attitude has changed. I wish that Park had written a summer story in between "Graduation Girl" and the first grader one. That way, it would give a bigger explanation why she has grown up a little bit. But Park made her spring up too fast for only being a first grader. I think it's cute how on the cover that her "B" is turned to the side to look like a pair of funny purple glasses. I'm 11 and have enjoyed the Junie B books, now, it feels like she's a different character. I kind of wish they did more explaining why Grace doesn't like to sit with her on the "stupid smelly bus" anymore. And why Lucille prefers the company of the twins instead of Junie B. It seemed to have just left you with Lucille skipping away to Camille and Chenille, then that was it for Lucy. And Junie B made a hissy-fit just because Grace wouldn't sit with her for ONE DAY. And THAT ended their friendship??? Park should have written more about that to make the story longer and funnier. Speaking of funny...Junie B also lost her pep. I miss her. I hope the up-coming stories are better. (...)

Summary: Not so good
Comment: Where is the old Junie B.? The spunky little kid who used to make my brothers and I crack up? The girl who always ends up in trouble? She's gone. She's not funny as a first grader. She's not a trouble-maker. Her journal entries are better than a third grader's. Her spelling is great...but that's sort of a bad thing for being 6. Junie B. doesn't even LOOK like the Junie B. we've come to know and love. She's different. And she'll never be the same. I loved the kindergarten stories. They're so realistic. But what are the odds that---not 1---but 2 and both of your friends will turn you down? That's not very normal. I'm 10 and have friends that I've carried with me since first grade. But Junie B. lost Lucille and Grace in a matter of days. I doubt a kid could lose both friends. Then they must not have been very good friends. I'm not reading the first graders AT ALL!!!!!!!!
