- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Realistic Fiction chapter book for primary or intermediate grade levels. This is a very funny story about Valentines Day in a kindergarden classroom. Junie is a very funny little girl witha big heart and is willing to stand up for her friends. The plot is person versus person as the girls argue over popularity and compete with one another. Junie also has a plot against hersellf as she drives herself crazy trying to find her secret admirer who ends up being the boy everything thinks hates her. The whole story was really cute and kids would find it very entertaining. The illustrations are done in pencil.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Junie is back at it again. It is Valentine's Day in Room NIne with Mrs., and the room is abuzz with excitement. Junie is determined to discover who gave her the Valentine's card signed "From Your Secret Admirer." The build up to the big day, and Junie's discovery of the identity of her admirer reminds young readers that children have varied ways of showing friendship. It is a good read, told in simple language, and readers will find themselves engaged with Junie's outspoken antics among her peers in kindergarten Room Nine.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I liked the book “Junie B. Jones and the mushy gushy valentine” by Barbara Park for three reasons. First, the writing is engaging to students. Her funny spelling mistakes will allow students to laugh and even correct her mistake. Throughout this book she relates to “Valentine’s Day” as “Valentime’s Day” a mistake that students should be able to point out. Second, the characters in Junie B. Jones are relatable to young students. For example, students may connect to having a best friend like Lucille in class. Third, the simple illustrations give students visualizations of what they reading. While they are advancing in their reading skills students may not rely on illustrations as much but having a few may benefit students. For example, when Paulie Allen Puffer is excited about his amazing idea, they show a picture of him. The big idea in this story is young students being creative to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5In particular book from the "Junie B. Jones", Junie receives a special mushy gushy valentine from a secret person in room 9. She asks around to all the boys in the class, and they all deny that they sent it. Finally, she asks who she least suspects (Meany Jim) and he accidentally blurts out the he did buy it for her; and spent all his allowance on it, to boot! They decide to keep this a secret between themselves. I read Junie B. Jones a lot when I was a child. I loved the voice that Junie had, and that she was so loud and stubborn. I was so interested in the situations that she got herself into -- I think that they were relate able to me at such a young age. Reading it now, as an adult, is a different story, but that is to be expected.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved this book. Junie B really captures what it is like when you are in kindergarten and you are doing valentines day parties. She is really funny and children reading the book would be able to relate to it as well as find its humor. Junie B is trying to figure out who gave her the mushy gushy valentine in room nine. A couple of the boys that she thinks it is tell her it wasn't them. She finally gets to meany Jim and he accidentally blurts out that he is the one who bought it and that he used his whole allowance. Junie B can't believe it was him cause he calls her names but he told her that he told her that she did it first. They then decide to keep it a secret that way room nine can remain "sparky".

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved these books as a kid! Many children can relate to these books because it's current. The problems that Junie B. had are similar to those the kids these days face. The language Junie B. uses is the same, too. Her thought process was interesting. Kids these days think of the craziest things. It's mind boggling to see their thought process translated into writing.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I like reading about Junie B. Jones, however I do not care for the way these books are written. The child talks like a child, and it is written that way. It is a difficult text for the new/beginning reader. This book is about a kindergardener or first grader and is at a third grade reading level. I feel the stories are cure, and my daughter who is in the third grade enjoys them, but I think the character could be a little older like the Harry the Horrible series. That being said I would use this book as a read aloud, or suggest for young readers who want a challenging text. I would also have to teach how writers use the ' apostophe to fill in a word when a sound is missing. The story is short, so young readers could be sucessful reading this text.
