Jackson Jones, by Lauren

I previously mentioned this book, when Lauren read it the first time, but this time Lauren wanted to tell you about it.....Here is her review.

Jackson Jones is a wonderful book.  The main characters are a boy named Jackson and an elf girl named Meeka.  Jackson falls into his great aunt Harriet’s hair and discovers a new world in which he meets Meeka.  He visits a book store where he gets a magic book called “How to be Yourself” then Jackson and Meeka find a doorknob on the floor.  They eat before exploring the doorknob, but Jackson throws up and then has to eat vegetables.    After food, they go to the reading room.  After the reading room, they go to the doorknob on the floor and go to a forest.  Then, in the forest is a river where Jackson finds stones calling his name.   After the forest Jackson goes home.  

I liked this book.  There are lots of crazy things and items in the book.  It starts out, after all, with Jackson falling into his aunt’s hair.  How could that possibly happen?  There are all sorts of strange animals in the book, like blue chickens and other miscolored animals.  And stones call out to people to pick them up.  The book has lots of random questions, like “what’s Spanish for couch?”  and “what’s the cosine for 7.88?”  I found this book very interesting.  I would recommend it for kids who like adventure.  It is a fun book.
