The Junie B. Jones Stupid Smelly Bus Tour celebrates 10 years on the road

Posted

Summer 2013 marks the tenth anniversary of the Junie B. Jones® stupid smelly bus tour, a national tour that brings everyone’s favorite first grader Junie B. Jones to life through a live, theatrical performance that includes a show and tell of some of Junie B.’s favorite things from home. With an original script written by award-winning author Barbara Park, Junie B. Jones and her bus driver, Mr. Woo will be entertaining new readers and established fans alike. The Junie B. Jones® series is one of the most popular among kids, and has sold over 55 million print, audio books and eBooks to date.

Launched in the summer of 2004, Junie B. Jones and Mr. Woo have spent almost every summer traveling the country in their hot pink bus. This year the pair will visit 20 cities from May through July, where Junie B. will perform for her fans, and will then “stamp” their books with her signature stamp pad. The events conclude with fun, Junie B.-themed giveaways for kids to take home as a keepsake of their meeting with Junie B. The events are open to the public and are recommended for children ages 5 and up.

This year, the tour will be headed to Fairhope's Page & Palette, June 15 at 2 p.m. For a full list of tour cities and events, please visit our website at JunieBJones.com.
