Why These Books are Classics for Early Childhood

The Junie B. books are groundbreaking because they are told from the point of view of a 5-year-old who is a bit goofy and a bit imperfect. The narration WILL remind you of things your kindergartener says (and does). This allows for sincere acceptance of the character of Junie B. into your child’s life. When Junie B. makes mistakes it opens freedom for your little one to laugh at her and themselves when they make goofy mistakes. When Junie B. is learning a lesson your child will relate because early childhood lessons learned are pretty universal. Even though it is not relatable to mom and dad, the stories will strike a chord with 5-year-olds.

So put your judgment and criticism aside relax and try to relate to it as if you were in Kindergarten.

In Conclusion, Some Honest Thoughts…

Ok, ok, it wasn’t quite as easy to absorb the stories as a 5 year old. Mostly because the grammar and vocabulary are written from a little kid’s POV. That was one of the things that was hard for me but my 5-year-old son LOVED the books. Sometimes, to be honest, I hated reading them to him because some of the words were NOT REAL WORDS! ARGH! If you can get past that then the stories are really great reliable and super funny.

Other Books to Check Out

Once your child starts 1st grade check out the Junie B. Jones Complete First Grade Collection (Books 18-28). Also, you can buy the ENTIRE Junie B. Jones Book Collection (Books 1-28).

Because kids at that age really enjoy books and stories. Sooner or later you will find yourself in need of more books for Kindergarten age children. Don’t miss out on some of these titles that are similar to Junie B. Jones. Funny, heartwarming, and with life lessons.
