Jumping Jack

by A.H. Benjamin

When Jack's uncle tells him not to eat the special jumping beans, Jack can't resist and pops them into his mouth right away. Soon his legs are tingling and he's bouncing all over town, with predictably hilarious results. Like all the I Am Reading books, this story has the perfect blend of storytelling, easy-to-read text, and colorful illustrations that is critical for building reading confidence.
