Mila Looks Forward to Shows about Strong Girls.
Mila Vincent, our seven-year-old theater critic, is excited about Annie and High School Musical. She also can’t wait to find out how Charlotte is going to save Wilbur in Charlotte’s Web and what Junie B. Jones is going to do with that wonderful pen of many colors she finds in Junie B. Jones Is Not a Crook.
Junie B. Jones Is Not a Crook
Junie B. Jones finds an amazing pen of many colors at school. Should she keep it? It really is a wonderful pen. Besides, there’s a new boy in kindergarten, and if he sees her fabulous pen, he’s sure to fall in love with her and not with Grace or Lucille, right? Casa Manana presents a sweet comedy about Junie B., who always messes things up — before she gets them right.
