"The Jackson Goes books are an amazing series that
promote global awareness in an entertaining way...
The books allow teachers the opportunity to integrate many
different subject areas into their lesson(i.e. social studies,
geography, language arts, comprehension, science, etc.)."
-----------------------------------------------------
"I enjoy using the Jackson books in my 2nd grade class
...it allows me the opportunity to showcase other parts of the world.
They help me to show students that people around the world
have many similarities and differences."  - Mrs. Blue
---------------------------------------------------
“Jackson is a compelling character...These books could be used
by teachers to teach vocabulary, literary devices, idioms, etc. ... The questions are
a good way to check for literal comprehension, especially for young readers.”
- Anna Stevens, Specialist ESL, FL, Media & Parental Involvement, Instructional Design & Innovation, Moore County Schools, NC

"...the San Juan book offers young ESL students a chance to shine
as they can assist the teacher and/or students with pronunciation and
definitions of Spanish words. The books are great tools to build vocabulary."

"The Friday before Halloween they had "Book-o-ween" at school.
They had to dress up as their favorite book character. He picked Jackson!!!! (all on his own)
...We decided he needed a suitcase so we made one and his dad drew on it.
...the little suitcase now sits on his bookshelf. : )"

As told by his mom Caroline..
"He calls it his Bay-Bay shirt (as in his dog Bailey).
In fact he insisted on sleeping in it last night and told me
that he could wear it when it is warm outside."
