Description

The Hey Jack! and Billie B. Brown series were written and designed expressly with new, emerging readers in mind. Each book is a stand-alone, where Billie and Jack face a new experience, or overcome an issue in their own unique way. Gentle and timeless, they are friendship stories, family stories, and school stories. There are no more than 50 words on each page, and there is word art or illustration on every second page to provide reading breaks. (This visual stimulus also helps readers engage with the story.)

Jack's adventures are slightly scarier than Billie's, from incoming tides to trips to the hospital, but author Sally Rippin makes sure that everything - including his toy sale, always ends just as it should, with lessons learned and fears tackled.) Quality writing. Entertaining storylines. Reliable role models. Specifically for emerging readers.

The Big Adventure
Jack loves camping at the beach. He can sleep in a tent, make campfires and go exploring! But will his adventures take him too far?
