The beloved character Jazlyn J is feeling a little upset when the new member of the family arrives. But her feelings about her baby brother turn out to be the complete opposite of what she was expecting.

Jazlyn J and the Opposites examines the opposites in life like hot and cold, happy and sad, quiet and loud, big and little, and even boy and girl. This terrific book also takes a look at how being different is okay and shows that if we try hard enough, we’ll find similarities. Bruce hopes that her book will teach acceptance to young ones. "Being different shouldn’t cast us out. When someone or something is different from what we are used to, we should look at it as a fantastic opportunity to learn. We need to embrace that. I believe that is how we grow."
