In front of a group of a few hundred kids, Junie B. came out and shared treasures from her Big Pink Trunk of Junk. She was a little nervous at first, but then her bus driver, Mr. Woo, convinced her that the kids were all friendly and that they’d be getting along in no time at all. She warmed up to all of her new friends very quickly and shared stories and costumes and instruments from many of the books written about her by author Barbara Park. She was funny, charming, and the kids absolutely loved her! Well, all but that little one who was afraid of the cymbals. But all the rest, I’m sure!

And after her performance, she stayed around to meet each of the kids and to put a stamp into each of their books! (There were SO MANY kids that they did limit it to 4 books per person.)
