Junie B. Jones and Some Sneaky Peeky Spying- Series Study
It has been impossible for me to decide which of the Junie B. Jones books are my favorite. They all have such great messages and humorous plots that I don't think I could ever get sick of them. In Junie B. Jones and Some Sneaky Peeky Spying, Junie B. finds herself getting in trouble for constantly spying on people. Her mother tells her that she is no longer allowed to spy after she scares her grandfather. Being such a good spier, this is incredibly hard for Junie B. One day when Junie B. and her mother are shopping at the grocery store, she sees her teacher walk in the door. Too bad her teacher does not see her. This gives Junie B. the opportunity to do what she loves best- spy on her. After all, it's only once in a lifetime that you see your teacher outside of school. Unfortunately, Junie B. witnesses her teacher eat one of the store's grapes. Then she sees her kiss a strange man. This is all too much for Junie B. to handle. She can't look at her teacher the next day and ends up spilling all of her secrets to the principal. Of course, Junie B. is in trouble for spying once more, but at least she gets a good explanation from her teacher about the events that she witnessed. This is a hilarious story that seems so realistic. It's amazing how well Barbara Park can relate to a 5 year old's way of thinking. Hearing Junie B.'s reactions to different scenarios never fail to make me smile.
