Being Jack is the fourth and concluding book about Jack - an ordinary boy who does extraordinary things. Jack still loves photography, surfing, and his crazy family, and things are going well until he notices that his best friend Christopher is starting to miss school and hiding out and avoiding everyone. And when a soccer game turns ugly, Jack knows that, again, the bullying has to stop. Jack is full of heart. And readers see themselves in the Jack books. Things don't go perfectly, but he copes, he survives. He has good friends; he loves his family, even though sometimes they drive him crazy. Now, finally, in Being Jack, life seems to be settling down. No more bullying. No more cancer. No more sort-of-stepdad. Seems to be. But it's real life, this book, so even though his stepdad Rob is great, Jack starts wondering about his real dad. And even though he's not being bullied, other people are. For Jack, it's all about finding the answers to some really tough questions: Should you, could you, find a dad who doesn't seem to care about being found? Do you have enough courage to stand up for your friend, against the people who hurt you? What happens to the line between right and wrong if you do nothing? Susanne Gervay knows how to make kids laugh, and think, and ask questions - of themselves and others. She writes book kids need to read. So Being Jack, is not just a book that will make kids feel comforted - it's a book that will show them the way towards taking responsibility. Towards standing up for themselves, and others. We are so very proud to have all of the Jack books on our list. Other Jack titles include: I Am Jack, Super Jack and Always Jack.
