Jack’s Amazing Magic Bed

Jack’s Amazing Magic Bed written by local writer Helen Snyder Bennett and illustrated by local artist Michael J. Hone is a must-read for children ages 3-8.  What kid hasn’t fantasized about driving? Jack drives his magic bed into New York City, sees the sights and ends up with a high flying adventure.  The book is very suitable for a bedridden child as writes this reviewer:

This review is from: Jack’s Amazing Magic Bed (Paperback)

As a child life specialist, I work with children facing chronic serious illnesses. Many of these children are bedridden for long periods of time. They face boredom, frustration and depression. Jack’s Amazing Magic Bed is an escape for these children, helping them leave the confines of their room on an exciting, empowering flight over NYC. We have two copies at our hospital, and when a child’s treatment prohibits me from even entering their room, I will give the child one copy, call them on the phone, and we will read it page by page together. Thank you Ms. Bennett. You’ve made a difference in quality of life for these kids.

The illustrator, Michael J. Hone, a very talented artist from Old Greenwich has hardcover and softcover covers books available for sale. For more information or to purchase the book, Mike can be reached at 203.637.5530.
