Summary: Concerns and Joys of Owning Jack
Review: Jack, a playful black and white dog that looks like a cross between a Jack Russell terrier and an anteater loves to hide his family's stuff in the closet, much to their dismay. Daily, Jack waits by the closet door to help them retrieve what might be misplaced. The family tries to correct Jack's errant ways by saying, "No, no, Jack!" But he continues hiding things until one day he hides a treasure that pleases all the family, especially Jack. This colorful book with bright acrylic artwork that moves the eye from left to right to the door will peak the curiosity of young readers from three to five years old as they try to guess what Jack might have placed in the closet. This chance to predict before lifting the flap to see will help the young reader pay attention to the text as well as the illustrations.

Summary: No, no Jack!
Review: My 2 year old daughter loves this book. She loves predicting what Jack has hidden in the closet and then lifting the flap to see. The illustrations are charming and she continually discovers more in each picture.

Summary: No, No, Jack Is Yes, Yes, for Kids!
Review: No,No,Jack is definitely a 5 star hit with our five year old grandaughter, Shannon. We have lots of children's books that she likes but she always goes first to No, No, Jack and it's a must for bedtime reading. When she brings her little friends, it's the first thing she shows them at Grandma's house. I suspect the appeal lies in the fact that little kids like the idea of hiding things, including themselves. Also, after a couple of readings, they feel as though they can read it themselves. I hope we will see many more books from Mr. Hirsch.
