The Worse Series Ever
My husband purchased this book for our daughter for Valentine's Day and mailed it to her because he is out of town. My daughter took one look at the cover and said "I do not like these books - they use ugly words." I looked inside to see that Junie likes to call people dumb among other things. After working with juvenile delinquents for a number of years it is clear that books like these are the start of that negative and abusive behavior in children. I would not even recommend this for an eight-eleven year old let alone 5-8. Avoid like the plague!!
