March 15 - 30, 2025
Saturdays and Sundays at 11am
Something terrible happened to Junie B. Jones at school today! Someone stole her new furry mittens! So when Junie B. finds a wonderful pen of many colors, she should be allowed to keep it, right? Because finders keepers, losers weepers. Right? And guess what? The new boy in kindergarten is the handsomest! Based on the best-selling book series by Barbara Park, this hilarious and heartfelt tale navigates the life of a kindergartner, fairness and friendship.
