Title: Junie B. jones And A Little Monkey Business
Review: I was terribly offended by this book. I got it for my 6yr old daughter,because she told me they were reading it in school. I assumed it was a good book, but boy was I surprised! The language used by the main character & others was in no way appropriate for children of any age. The constant use of the words "stupid" & "dumb" & calling classmates "cry-baby boy" & "big fat Jim" & Junie B. thinking she could beat up a classmate & a classmate saying her father was not a real potatoe, while the nana calls him a couch potatoe, but "he is just a lazy bum." I found this book crude & disrepectful. There will be no more in my home & I have already spoken to the school about stopping the use of them in school. Our school has a "bully-free" program & this book totally contradicts that program. All they seem to do in this book is bully, make fun of & call names.
Is the review positive or negative?
