A beauty shop guy, that's what! And Junie B. Jones is going to be one when she grows up. But first she needs a little practice. And a few volunteers. Like her bunny slippers. And her dog. And maybe even ... herself? Is Junie B. on her way to a great new career? Or is she about to have the worst hair day ever?
