Jackson Jones, Book 2: The Tale of a Boy, a Troll, and a Rather Large Chicken

You never know where your story will take you.

All Jackson had to do was clean the pool. One simple task. It would have been simple, anyway, if that freak storm hadn't come from nowhere and carried him away. Now Jackson is trapped in the branches of a massive tree, and he can't find a way out. While he wanders, he meets a flesh-eating hound named Muffin, a hen who wears too much makeup, a million angry squirrels, and a Troll with nose hair down to there. Before Jackson can go home, he'll have to discover the great task the Author has planned for him and learn what it really means to put down roots.

About the Author
Kelly, Jennifer L.: - Jenn Kelly lives in Ottawa, Canada, but her heart lives in Paris. Or Hawaii. She hasn't decided yet. She is an undercover garden guru, painter, and chef, which has absolutely nothing to do with this book. She won a writing award in grade 4, failed English Lit in university, spent many years writing bad poetry, and then decided to write a book. This is it. She is married to her best friend, Danny, and is mom to a five-year-old boy and a dog who worries too much. She embraces the ridiculousness and disorganization of life.
