What is Hey Jack!:The Robot Blues about?
Jack is excited about the costume party, especially because he has made an amazing robot suit all by himself. But when he starts to worry that the other children might laugh at his homemade costume, his excitement turns into nerves. Should Jack wear it or choose something safer? With a little courage and help from his friends, Jack discovers that being yourself can be more fun than trying to fit in. A warm, funny story about confidence, friendship and feeling proud of your ideas.
