5.0 out of 5 stars Jackson Jones is a delightful summer read !
Jackson Jones and the Puddle of Thorns was a delightful, fun story. Jackson and his friends were real.

Jackson Jones and the Puddle of Thorns was a delightful, fun story. Jackson and his friends were real. They spoke like real kids, fought like real friends and had tender, loving hearts....like real kids. I used this book as an opening novel for my summer school class of 4th and 5th graders...mainly boys. They loved it!! We planted a "puddle of thorns" at our school as a follow-up, and had to spend some time looking for packets of seeds for zinnias and nasturiums! A very fun book, well written and illustrated.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute story, April 8, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jackson Jones and the Puddle of Thorns (Paperback)
This was a Delacorte Yearling contest winner in 1992 (formerly the Marguerite de Angeli Contest). Still a cute story and not so outdated that kids wouldn't be able to relate to the characters.
