The 42 book series “ Around the world adventures of Max & Jack” is a children’s non-fiction series aimed at ages 9-12 and teaches children about other people from different cultures in the hopes of teaching kids social acceptance and put an ending to bullying.

The whole purpose of these books is to increase tolerance and social acceptance between children of different nations. It teaches them facts about different countries cultures so that they can learn as well as being inspired to want to know more about those who they see as different.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
This fun filled world adventure stars a boy named Max and his dog Jack. Max and Jack live on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and each day travel to a new country of the world. In each country they meet a new boy or girl and their pets, which then tell them about their country and take them sightseeing.

 As well as being a fun filled adventure story that will fuel children’s imagination, this series of 42 countries also educates the readers about facts of each country such as history, climate and animals but also popular and important sights in each country.

 This engaging tale of Around the World Adventures of Max and Jack will take the readers on an exciting journey they have never been on and explore places they have never visited, like France.

 WHY MAX & JACK ARE SO IMPORTANT TO ME
Children of today need to learn more about other people and cultures of the world if we as humans ever plan to make discrimination (which is currently an epidemic) a thing of the past. I believe my books are a great start in achieving this goal, as it’s when we are children that we develop our morals and values.

 I have not yet come across any other author whom of which has a book series like “Around the world adventures of Max & Jack”, where they include discovering such a large variety of different countries or aimed at the same target audiences and set out in the same way as this series.
