Book Description
Jordan and Taylor, who have called each other Jay and Tay since as long as they could remember, are siblings. Jay is energetic and imaginative. He often lets his enthusiasm get the better of him. Tay, who is more reserved and thoughtful, seems to spend a lot of time rolling her eyes at her younger brother. Jay and Tay are about to begin an adventure that will take them on a journey of self-discovery. Jay is getting ready to attend his first martial arts class. He thinks he is going to learn how to fight like on television. He quickly realizes that being a martial artist has more to do with self-control, respect for others, and self discipline. He learns to follow directions, focus on the task at hand, and turn a bully into a friend. And so will you.

The Adventures of Jay and Gizmo
Author: Dr. James S. Brown
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796090875
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 29
Book Description
Books for Young and Early School-Aged Boys This is the fourth in a new series of children’s books, The Adventures of Jay and Gizmo. Although they will be of interest to all children, these books are intended specifically for young and early school-aged Indigenous boys. They are written based on educational research into the factors that have been shown to play a role in increasing the probability that boys will develop an interest in reading at an early age. Educational research has shown that the number one predictor that children will experience long-term success in school is the level of reading readiness that they already have when they begin school. The research also shows that young boys who have been provided with books that have specific characteristics are likely to have a higher level of reading readiness when they begin school. These characteristics are as follows: 1. Books that have a male as the central character; 2. Books that the boys actually own, even if they cannot yet read them by themselves; 3. Books that contain action, adventure, and/or problem by boys; 4. Books that portray the central character modelling behaviours such as reading, problem-solving, searching for, and applying knowledge; 5. Books in which the vocabulary allows them to be read to boys by their parents in their early years and by the boys themselves once they begin to read for themselves.
