On the first day of school, Miss Lucinda asks the students to share their talents. Francesca is good

at soccer, and Matthew is good at fishing. It seems that everyone has something to share. But Jack is worried.He doesn’t have any talent at all…or so he thinks.The illustrations in Jack's Talent pop with energy and the story is the perfect boost for any

child who questions his or her abilities.

this a nice choice for those just starting school. --Kirkus

"Teachers will want to use this at the beginning of a school year, but children will find piquant details in the pictures when they return to it later on theirown."-Horn Book
