Junie B. Jones Is A Party Animal Part 2

After that, I quick grabbed Philip Johnny Bob. And I dragged my stuff to the front door.

"ALL RIGHTIE! LET'S BE ON OUR WAY!" I shouted very excited.

Mother was in baby Ollie's room. She didn't come.

"OKIE DOKE! I'M GOING OUTSIDE NOW! JUNIE B. JONES IS GOING OUTSIDE TO GET IN THE CAR!" I shouted louder.

Just then, Mother runned to get me.

"No, Junie B.! No! I'm not taking you to Lucille's, remember? Lucille's nanna is picking you up at three o'clock. I told you that. I'm sure sure I did." I did."

All of a sudden, my shoulders got very slumping. 'Cause I didn't actually remember that information, that's why.

"Darn it," I said very sad. "Three o'clock takes forever."

After that, I slumped to the table and ate my breakfast.

Then I sat on my front step.

And I swinged on my swings.

And I read some books.

And I ate a cheese sandwich.

And I counted to a million bazillion.

And I sat on my step some more.

And then guess what?

Three o'clock finally came!

I saw the big gold car in my driveway!

"HEY! SHE'S HERE! SHE'S HERE! SHE'S HERE!" I yelled real thrilled.

Mother and Daddy hurried to the door.

"Are you ready to go?" said Mother.

"READY!" I yelled. "JUNIE B. JONES IS READY TO GO!"

The richie nanna got out of her car.

I throwed my arms around her.

"h.e.l.lO, NANNA! h.e.l.lO! h.e.l.lO! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU THE WHOLE LIVELONG DAY!"

Mother pulled me off of that woman.

"Sorry," she said. "I'm afraid Junie B. has a little extra energy in her. She's been sitting on the step for hours."

I leaped way high in the air.

"SITTING ON THE STEP!" I said. "JUNIE B. JONES HAS BEEN SITTING ON THE STEP!"

Daddy and Mother carried my things to the big gold Cattle Act.

And guess what? When they opened the door, Lucille and that Grace were already in the backseat!

"LUCILLE! GRACE! I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU WERE ALREADY HERE! AND SO THIS IS A DELIGHTFUL SURPRISE!"

I reached inside to try to tickle them. But Mother pulled my hand away.

"Please, Junie B. Don't start," she said.

I saluted her.

"Aye, aye, Captain," I said real hilarious.

After that, I got in the car and I bounced on the softie seat.

Only too bad for me. 'Cause I accidentally bounced too high. And I banged my head on the roof.

The nanna did a gasp.

I patted her.

"Yeah, only that didn't even faze me," I said.

After that, I buckled up my seat belt.

And I waved good-bye to Mother and Daddy.

And the nanna drove us away.

5/Going to the Ball

Lucille was sitting in the middle.

She whispered real quiet to me and that Grace.

"Beg for my poodle," she said. "You promised promised, remember? You promised to beg for my poodle."

Me and that Grace looked and looked at each other. 'Cause we didn't actually want to do that particular thing.

Lucille poked us.

"Come on! You promised!" promised!" she whispered. "You promised to beg!" she whispered. "You promised to beg!"

I did a sigh.

Then I thinked and thinked about what to say.

Finally, I took a deep breath.

"Hey, Nanna. Guess what? Lucille wants a poodle, apparently. And so could you buy her one, do you think?" I asked.

"Yes, could you?" asked that Grace. "'Cause she is making us beg you. Or else we can't spend the night."

The nanna's mouth came all the way open.

"Ohhhh. So that's that's what this is all about, huh? Well, my granddaughter knows perfectly well that I am allergic to dogs. So you can tell Lucille that a poodle is out of the question, I'm afraid." what this is all about, huh? Well, my granddaughter knows perfectly well that I am allergic to dogs. So you can tell Lucille that a poodle is out of the question, I'm afraid."

I patted Lucille very understanding.

"A poodle is out of the question, we're afraid," I said.

Lucille kicked her feet up and down.

"Beg harder, harder," she whispered. "You have to beg harder. harder."

I did a frown.

"Are you firm on that, Nanna?" I asked.

"No poodle, Lucille!" said the nanna very snappish.

Lucille kicked her feet some more.

"I knew knew that dumb idea wouldn't work!" she grouched. that dumb idea wouldn't work!" she grouched.

Just then, the car stopped in front of a big iron gate.

Grace's eyes opened big and wide.

"Wow! This gate looks like a castle castle gate," she said. gate," she said.

Lucille smiled a teeny bit.

"It's not a castle gate, you sillyhead, Grace," she said. "This is the gate to my house." house."

The nanna pushed a b.u.t.ton, and the gate opened right in front of our eyes.

"Hey, that b.u.t.ton is like magic!" magic!" I said. I said.

Lucille smiled bigger.

After that, the nanna drove down a long driveway. She stopped in front of a big, beautiful house.

Lucille jumped out of the car and ran inside.

Me and that Grace followed after her.

And guess what? Lucille's house was even beautifuller on the inside inside than it was on the than it was on the outside! outside!

There was a beautiful long row of stairs. And a beautiful big bowl of flowers. And a beautiful, giant, sparkly ceiling light made out of gla.s.s.

I did a gasp at that glistening thing!

"That light takes my breathing away!" I said.

Lucille skipped all around in a circle.

She singed a loud song in our ears.

"SEE? SEE? I TOLD YOU I WAS RICH! SEE? SEE? I TOLD YOU I WAS RICH!" she sang.

She made that song up, I believe.

After that, she took our hands and showed us all the rooms in her house.

She showed us the living room. And the dining room. And the kitchen. And the big giant patio. And the daddy's office. And the mother's office. And the family room. And the pool room where you play pool. And the outside pool where you swim. And the hot tub. And the library. And the gym. And the nanna's room. And the mother and daddy's room. And the fancy gold bathroom with the Jacuzzi. And the brother's room. And a whole, whole bunch of guest rooms.

Then finally, Lucille showed us her very own bedroom!

And it looked like a bedroom where a princess lived!

Lucille's bed had a pink frilly roof on top of it.

"That is called a canopy," canopy," she explained. "It matches my pink silk draperies and my pink silk bedspread. And my pink telephone. And my plush pink rug. And my wallpaper with pink flowers in it. she explained. "It matches my pink silk draperies and my pink silk bedspread. And my pink telephone. And my plush pink rug. And my wallpaper with pink flowers in it.

"And see my TV? And my stereo? And my computer? And my CD player?"

She pointed to the corner. "And did you notice all of my big stuffed animals standing over there?" she asked.

My eyes popped out at those giant guys. The giraffe was bigger than me even!

Me and that Grace ran to play with them.

"NO! STOP! DON'T!" shouted Lucille. "YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TOUCH THEM! THEY ARE JUST FOR SHOW!"

"Huh?" said that Grace.
