Why? 3. Park, B. (2012). Juunie B., First Grader: Turkeys We Have Loved and Eaten (and Other Thankful Stuff). New York: Random House. This was a read aloud with my seven year old, but I'm counting it as one of my books this year since it was a larger special edition.I personally don't care for Junie B. Jones because I think she's a little spoiled and the adults need to give her consequences for her actions, but my little girl loves them and that's really all that matters. This book had her laughing out loud several times each chapter and she's already grabbed another Junie B. book off the shelf to start asap.
