Stories I've Written.

for children & grown ups

When we were young, dad used to tell us Jacko stories. He created these characters and brought them to life for us any time we asked him. None of the Owen kids ever forgot Jacko, even fifty or so years later! Since I began writing, early in 2002, It was on my mind to bring Jacko back to life. With God's help I've done it. Though I will never be able to tell them like my dad did, none the less, Jacko lives! I've recorded them too, see below..

The Jacko Stories CD One: Jacko Makes New Friends.. Jacko and the Storm.. Jacko and the Far Off Forest.. Jacko's Treasure.. CD Two: The Land of the Giants.. Jacko Makes a Noise.. The Secret Tree.. The Forest Fire.. Jacko's Big Surprise.. Each CD lasts almost an hour.
		My brother Stan brought this carving home when he was in the merchant navy. It typifies Jacko, and still lives at dad's house. He was much darker then. He's gone gray with age. Read what children say about Jacko...
