Hurray, hurray! Junie B. Jones is graduating from kindergarten and ready for first grade at last! But getting used to new friends, a new teacher, and new glasses is challenging, even for the irrepressible Junie B. Follow her adventures as she adapts to first grade, dreams of being the boss of lunch, and creates a kickball half-time show. Junie B. ALWAYS writes everything down in her “top-secret personal beeswax” journal, which gives us the inside peek into her world. Spark your child’s interest in reading with this musical based on stories from the popular books written by Barbara Park.
