How did you know that Runaround Jack was to be the main and only character in your book?

I love animals, so it makes sense that they would find their way into my children’s books.

Children have always been delighted in stories where animals are the characters. Kids are enamoured by animals. They either have a pet at home or love their neighbour’s pets or their classroom adopts a pet.

Ones themes and concepts can be expressed through animals and can include moral and etiquette lessons.

In my book, “What’s Beyond My Head?”, Runaround Jack behaves in a a way that effectively allows a child to see himself behaving in a similar way.

At the same time, children remain distant enough to receive the message in a more objective way. It is easier to understand when a dog is not behaving well.
