Jack's Best Day Ever

By Gabrielle Bassett, Annabelle Hale

Jack loves anything that zooms, digs and races. But Jack doesn’t like change and he only ever wants to eat peanut buter sandwiches!

Follow Jack and his friends as they go on an adventure to the zoo!

"At the core of Gabrielle’s vivid and beau�fully writen tale is the blossoming friendship between two children, each with their own unique disability and neurodiversity. They observe each other’s preferences and ways of experiencing the world around them without judgement, with an open heart and a sense of adventure." Lenny De Vries (Disability & Neurodiversity Program Lead).
