This week we read and discussed the book The Adventures of Jessica and Zebedee. In this story (written by Linda Joy) A young girl called Jessica lives in an orphanage that is run by a lady called Madam Iceberg. We discovered that Madam Iceberg was not a kind lady and that Jessica's room in the orphanage was referred to as an office.
Her life changes when she is gifted a parrot named Zebedee.We discover that Jessica is a really good artist and that this skill leads her into a new lifestyle away from the orphanage. They have many adventures together, some better than others.
We gave this book a 5 out of 5 star rating and would recommend this book if you like adventure stories.
After finishing the book we drew our own pictures of Zebedee. We have added some of them to this blog.
