Jenn
Kelly lives just outside of Ottawa, Ontario, in Canada.
She has lived here forever, with the exception of some
years living in small towns. She failed English Honours
at the University of Ottawa, but got her CFT (Certified
Forestry Technician) at Lakehead University and her Arborist
Certificate at Kemptville College. Which has absolutely
nothing to do with writing.
The second Jackson Jones book, which Jenn
has just completed, will be out in the summer of 2011.
Jenn gives a super-fantastic presentation
for schools called "When to Use Boogers, Vomit, or
Stinkybutts." She adores chai lattes and pumpkin
decaf soy lattes.
Sometimes Jenn pretends she’s a garden
gnome.

Jackson
Jones: The Tale of a Boy, an Elf, and a Very Stinky Fish
written by Jenn Kelly
illustrated by Adrianne Elsammack
Zondervan, 2010.
ISBN 978-0310720799 Hbk.
272 0 pages
Sometimes you have to get lost to figure out where you're
going. All Jackson wants is to be the hero, for just once
in his life. The hero who steps in at the last minute
to save the universe. The hero who saves the entire village
from a raging fire.
Great Aunt Harriett is always telling Jackson to find
his own story, but so far his story doesn't seem very
exciting. Until he falls into Great Aunt Harriett's hair,
that is. There, Jackson will encounter a world of elves,
trap doors, bubblegum-blowing birds, hairy-backed spiders,
kangaroo meat, and perilous danger that requires ... a
hero.
