I love the idea of incorporating familiar favorites like Jack & Jill, and others, into a new story of a girl looking for her dog. And the rhyme scheme is a nice plus, along with a lesson at the end. It makes for a fun, entertaining, and educational story all in one. I can't wait to read it to my friend's four-year-old daughter!

Jill’s dog, Toad is missing and doesn’t seem to matter where she and Jack look he’s not there. Their friend, Billy Goat Gruff comes to the rescue, again. A heart-warming story with a lesson. The second installment of the Jack and Jill chronicles will delight young readers with its rhyme and colorful pictures.

Jack and Jill

A cute little book with a lot of characters you already know. My kids identified with the book because they know how upset I was when we lost our dog.

Cute read with my kiddos

Kids enjoyed that they knew characters from nursery rhymes as well as the way the way the author wrote the book. Almost a nursery rhyme in itself!
