Set in the 80's before cell phones!
           Oh, Jack! is a wholesome, heartwarming family story for children ages 7 to 12, but it can be read to children of all ages.
​
           Jack is a sweet, floppy-eared hound with endless energy and absolutely no manners. He chews shoes, eats anything he can find, and turns Brad's life completely upside down. But as the two friends share adventures and face challenges together, Brad discovers that honesty is more important than any excuse and that caring for a friend comes with responsibility.
Â
          Filled with humor, friendship, and valuable life lessons, Oh, Jack! teaches children the importance of responsibility, patience, respect, and kindness. Most of all, it reminds readers not to judge others too quickly, because sometimes the biggest troublemakers can become the very best
friends.
