“Junie B. is the darling of the young-reader set.”—USA Today

Meet the World’s Funniest First Grader—Junie B. Jones! Room One is getting ready for their very own Thanksgiving feast! There’s even a contest to see which room can write the best thankful list.

Lennie is thankful for Nipsy Doodles. Shirley is thankful for Snausages. And Junie B.? She’s thankful for her stuffed elephant named Philip Johnny Bob.

Or will this Thanksgiving feast turn into a Turkey Day Disaster?

From acclaimed author Barbara Park, this hilarious series—starring the wittiest, sassiest first grader around—is sure to be laugh-out-loud fun for the whole family!
