The first installment of chapter book graphic novel series, Jackson's Wilder Adventures, dynamic duo Irwin and Jackson make science fun and accessible through their adventures far and wide, from the subpolar Faroe islands to the tropical Yunque Rainforest and African savanna.
Jackson Wilder and his imaginary friend Irwin the Thylacine are having a great day until Jackson is faced with his dad's cooking—Jackson isn't normally a picky eater, but he definitely does not want to eat his dad's mysterious leftover casserole. There's no telling what's in it, and all the foods are touching... Gross! Not only that, his dad breaks the news that it's time for them to move to a smaller apartment. But Jackson doesn't want to move! If he was a wild animal, he could live wherever he wanted and eat whatever he wanted, and nobody would ever tell him otherwise. At least, that's what he thinks until Irwin takes him on an adventure to learn about the hardships wild animals face around the world—quite hairy situations to be sure!

      Starred review from December 1, 2024

      Gr 2 Up-This title pairs a young boy with an imaginary friend, Irwin the Thylacine, an extinct Australian marsupial. As the boy encounters things in his life that seem out of the ordinary, Irwin shows him real life animals and their struggles, which help Jackson get through his issues. This series opener helps Jackson try food he finds gross by seeing animals that eat gross things (regurgitated slugs, whole tarantulas, and animal dung), and helps alleviate his fears about moving to a new house by showing animals who are losing their habitats due to human expansion, climate change, and pollution. This fun and informational series provides fantastic examples to children of how we share so much with the animals of our world. VERDICT This series should continue for a long time. Plenty of fun adventures can be had when finding out about the world we live in.
