Title: My feminist hackles are up!
Product review: My five year old daugher and I have read the Junie B. Jones series and have thoroughly enjoyed the spunky, nosy, naughty, hilarious Junie B. I hesitated buying this book because I didn't want to reinforce the idea that little girls need boyfriends, but I figured - well this is Junie B., she has spirit, how bad can this be? I stopped reading at chapter two when Junie B. refers to herself as a "pig" in order to lower the defenses of her rival for Warren's attentions. Call me an overreacting feminist - I gladly accept the title and will not accept a book, cute, funny light-hearted or not where a five year old girl NEEDS a boyfriend and willingly calls herself a "pig" in order to get one.
