This great adventure carries them deep into the woods to find a secret, magical place to celebrate their friendship. Come along with us on the journey and discover where this experience takes them! Adventures of Jackie is a delightful book geared toward preschool-aged children (ages 2-6) based on the adventures of animals on a farm. The inspiration for this book is nestled in the heart of this beautiful farm and Apple Orchard School. Apple Orchard School is a small preschool that has spent 50 years focusing on nature-based education and centered around the importance of social and emotional development. This book playfully uses farm animals to invite parents and children to explore the realm of feelings and emotions experienced throughout their lives. Feelings can be hard to navigate for anyone and for many children, expressing emotions is challenging. Strong emotions often make us uncomfortable. Adventures of Jackie allows children to consider various feelings throughout the story while feeling safe and comfortable. This book is based on a long legacy of animals at the Apple Orchard School and the characters are the real animals that have made a home at the school over the years. All of the special places in the book are actual locations that the children explore each day at Apple Orchard. We hope you enjoy this magical adventure on the farm!
