Opis

The Adventures of Dedan and Dylan Jackson is about the adventures of two imaginative boys and their tales of mischief. Dedan and Dylan both live with their mom in an upper-middle-class home. Their parents are recently divorced, but are attempting to work together for the sake of the children. Mrs. Ruth is the family's nanny who watches the Jackson boys. The idea for the book came about because of the lack of books about African American boys. I decided to begin a chapter series to contribute to the need for books that focus on African American male characters, and positive role models in the African American community. I wrote this book in an effort to begin a trend in writing stories that all children can relate to at any age. This is not a book solely for African American families or children. These are warm and loving stories for families to share and read together.
