“I know they are oh my! That is why I put them under my bed! Get it, Mother? Get it? Now my scary face will be down there all the time! And so that monster already got scared away, I bet!”
All of a sudden, Mother started to laugh.
Then I started to laugh, too.
Plus here’s another happy thing. ’Cause this morning there was more drool on my pillow.
Only I am not that worried.
’Cause it was from Raggedy Ruth, I bet.
Or else maybe it was from Philip Johnny Bob.
Or maybe it was even from me.
But that does not mean I’m a baby.
’Cause everybody drools on their pillow once in a while!
My very own mother told me that.
And she would not even lie to me…
probably.
Laugh out loud with Junie B. Jones!

Junie B.’s Essential Survival Guide to School
Barbara Park says:
“I’m not sure how old I was when I decided that there might be something creepy hiding under my bed. I didn't know what it was, exactly. But I was sure that if I got too close, some sort of hand would reach out and grab my ankle.
That’s why I taught myself to leap onto my bed from all corners of my room. First, I would get a running start. Then I would spring off the floor, fly through the air, and land safely in the middle of my mattress.
Of course, it’s embarrassing to even admit such a ridiculous thing now. I mean it. I can't remember the last time I took a running leap like that.
No. Honest. I can’t.
(Okay, fine. It was Saturday night. But if you tell anyone, I’ll deny it completely.)”
