Just 'cause she couldn't stop laughing and rolling. So how is she supposed to get that boy to love her?

Home- To- School Connections

Junie B. tries to get Warren to like her as much as he likes her friends in Junie B. Jones Loves Handsome Warren. However, she thinks that nice dresses and fancy running shoes are the way to get Warren’s attention. This is a good way to discuss the importance of being yourself. Ask your child to make a list of all the things that make him special and then share the list with the class.
