Junie B. Jones and her shenanigans are coming our way! Three years ago, Junie B. showed up on our doorstep and of course, we invited all our friends to meet her. On Monday, June 17th at 2:00, Junie B. is back! Our favorite precocious kid is out on the Stupid Smelly Bus Tour to bring Park’s lovable character to fans across the country, all of whom love to meet their favorite book character in person.

So what exactly happens on a Stupid Smelly Bus Tour? The fun begins when the doors of Duling Hall open at 1:30 with fun activities, and the main show begins at 2:00 and features live performances by two actors playing Junie B. Jones and Mr. Woo. Junie B. and her teacher travel from city to city in a bright pink “Stupid Smelly” school bus adorned with colorful graphics, including the series’ signature checkerboard and the faces of Junie B.’s friends in the windows.

At each event, Junie B. will open her Big Pink Trunk of Junk and JBJ Symbols copyright Marcia Cirielloperform a Show and Tell, sharing instantly recognizable items from the series such as her stuffed elephant, “Philip Johnny Bob,” and the floaty ball from the toilet tank, Junie B.’s favorite plumbing supply.

Tickets for this event are $10 and can be purchased at Lemuria Books. The ticket provides admittance to the event for one child and parent, as well as one paperback Junie B. Jones book. A portion of the proceeds from this event will be donated to promote the arts in Fondren. And after the event, Junie B. and Mr. Woo will stick around for an official book stamping and to hand out free Junie B. souvenirs for all kids in attendance. For more information about the Junie B. Jones book series, visit the series website at JunieBJones.com. We hope to see you at Duling Hall!
