Today I'm going to tell you about the book Small As an Elephant by Jennifer Richard Jacobson. This book is amazing! I'm not sure if I loved it more because the main character's name is Jack, or because the setting of the story is Maine, one of my all time favorite places! In the book Jack, and his sometimes unpredictable mom, finally take a vacation to Acadia National Park. Things are going well until Jack wakes up one morning and finds that his mom has left him! Jack doesn't want his mom to get in trouble, so he tries to find his own way back to his home in Boston. This book is full of adventure and if you read it you will be awed and inspired by Jack's courage and resilience. Read Small as an Elephant, you won't be disappointed!
