My Thoughts: I literally laughed out loud while reading Jackson Jones. Be sure to read the chapter titles as they are as funny as the story itself. I loved this book and hope that my children John (10yo) and Theresa (12yo) will love it as well, especially since the main character is 10.5 years old and in 6th grade (you'll have to read the book to find out why). The writing style reminded me of both The Phantom Tollbooth and books by Roald Dahl
