The book isn't terrible, but it surely could have benefitted with a makeover to make it look polished. Mind you, this book is aimed at kids, and so the stories can seem a bit silly, and at times, maybe even over-the-top.

I think I found the stock photos revealed (and sometimes repeated) to distract from the story. I believe that children books hugely benefit with quality artwork, and plenty of authors either commission the task to professional artists, or have a knack for drawing and illustrate their own books. I believe that if this book had been worked around more and given more polished writing intertwined with quality artwork in sufficient amounts, it would have been a lot more enjoyable to read.

I am not certain the reason why this book has been removed from Amazon, I am suspecting either it infringed on a photo copyright or the author purposely took it down due to quality issues. At any rate, it was an ok 5 minute read, but still quite forgettable.

I was thoroughly dissappointed in this book. It was labeled a kids book, but it's hard to gauge for which age group this was intended for, since some of the words were too long & difficult for little kids, and the story too simplistic for those with enough grasp of the language. Also, the plotline is too erratic.
Jack's pictures are cute as illustrations, but his behaviour in the stories was rather inconsistent, sometimes more antropomorphic than other moments.
