Junie. B. Jones, the determined and sometimes hot-tempered kindergartner, is well-established in the United States but has only recently made her debut in New Zealand.
In this title, the second in a lengthy series, Junie is disgusted to find she has acquired a baby brother. Confusion arises when Junie's grandmother fondly describes the new arrival as the "cutest little monkey."
Excited at last, Junie. B. Jones proudly tells her friends at Show and Tell the next day that the baby is really a monkey, and she soon finds herself in trouble with her friends.
Many children like the safety of reading a series of books about a familiar character. The series is recommended for confident readers who are ready to tackle simple chapter books.
