Junie B. Jones Is Not a Crook by Barbara Park
4.0
I've always loved these books
I read the majority of these books during my childhood. I'm re-reading them in hopes my daughter will fall in love with them,like I did. The only downfall to this book is it talks about identifying "crooks" as people who have tattoos. As a heavily tattooed mother who holds a nursing license and has never broken the law, this connection was a little disheartening. I don't want my daughter making the connection with this this stereotype because it is in a children's book. I don't want her passing judgement on tattooed people just because she may identify with this character.
