Junie B. Jones rides the bus for the very first time in Kindergarten. Junie hates riding the stupid, smelly, yellow bus and would rather be a car rider. Jimmy rides the bus and bullies her because he has a secret crush on her. Jimmy gets them in trouble and the bus driver comes to talk to them about their behavior. Junie convinces her grandma to drive her to school. She no longer has to ride the bus anymore and is happy.Junie uses figurative language to describe her thoughts, fears, and what angers her. Mood is very evident in this story to explain how this 5-6 year old girl feels about the world.
