My daughter joined a book club and began reading this series. I must admit that I enjoy reading them myself. Junie B. is so refreshing and true to what little people think and say. I so enjoy hearing the girls at book club discuss and laugh. One night I sat in bed trying to catch up and laughed the whole time. My husband thought I was crazy but I had a ball reading this children's book. Must have for all little girls ages 5 - 8

I admit i read these when I was young and just loved them and this one was my abseulute favorite. THESE U DONT HAVE TO READ IN ORDER I DID NOT. Junie b the b stands for beatrice is a very funny with a huge imagination. And picks on just to people may and her little brother ollie. THIS story is about her family going to Hawii and doing so many fun things like for junie b not have ollie come to Hawiii and stah home. BUT junie b cant be patient for some things and its true. JUNIE B IS CRAZZY when it comes to her travel journal that her teacher had gave her before she left to put pictures of her in hawii in thhe journal. BUT is getting bad pictures of here and are not turning out to be what she thought it would be. And junie b jones trip is turnning out terrrible welll thats what she really thinks and its true it really is. I think its ages six and up if yout a good reader for your age or nine and under to six haha. Biut I stopped reading them cause there to easy for me but bsometimes i keep them by me and take a look at them cause I jjust love her crazy and funny additude. READ OTHER BOOKS BY BARBRA PARK TOO

Junie B. Jones is set for another adventure. Junie B. is her usual excited self when she finds out her family is taking a trip to Hawaii. She is even more excited when Mr. Scary gives her a project! He expects her to take pictures and make a journal of her trip to share. Junie thinks this will be a piece of cake but she quickly learns it will not be so simple. Her perfect vacation starts out to be not so perfect as one typical Junie B. situation after another presents itself, starting with grouchy ladies on the plane. Luckily the trip shapes up eventually but not after some hilarious encounters and experiences. This story is yet another gem from author Barbara Parks. She writes Junie B. with such an original voice and personality that makes every book seem new and fresh. As your are reading her stories you can easily picture a first grader you know saying some of the same things that Junie B. says. I highly recommnend this book, and any others in the Junie B. series to parents, children and educators. I read Junie B. aloud to my kindergarteners and they cannot wait for each new book. I find myself enjoying them as much as the students. These books are honestly laugh out loud funny. I highly recommend 'Aloha-ha-ha' and all other Junie B. titles to anyone who needs a book that will entertain both children and adults.
