Authors 24 and 25: Audrey Wood and Jakki Wood

Jubal's Wish is a good example of how we sometimes have to go through a difficult time to find happiness. It also shows that we never know what role we might play in trying to help others-sometimes we end up being the one helped! Audrey Wood has written numerous books with many of them illustrated by her husband, Don Wood. You can read more about their books and do some activities at their clubhouse site.

Jakki Wood has written and illustrated a couple of books that look at day to day life such as the one above: A Hole in the Road and Bumper to Bumper. She has also written and illustrated some other books for children including: Across the Big Blue Sea: An Ocean Wildlife Book with National Geographic and some counting and alphabet animal books.

We loved the bright colors in both of these books. It's been overcast and stormy so vivid pictures of flowers and frogs and things being repaired helped to enliven our day.
