Meet
Jax
, the loyal pit bull with a big heart and an even bigger job!
When the recess bell rings, Jax puts on his blue "JAX ON DUTY" vest and proudly joins Mrs. Jana's kindergarten class on the playground. From the swings to the slide, Jax keeps a watchful eye as his friends learn how to
play fair, take turns, and stay safe.
But being on duty isn't just about rules-it's about kindness, teamwork, and helping others. When a disagreement breaks out at the slide or a race takes a tricky turn, Jax reminds everyone what it means to be a true friend.
Inspired by a
real-life service dog
who helped his owner,
Mrs. Jana
, heal after the loss of her sister in 2023, this heartwarming story celebrates compassion, courage, and connection.
Through Jax's eyes, children learn that
heroes come in all shapes, sizes, and breeds-and sometimes, they have paws.
Perfect for ages
4-8
,
Jax on Duty: Recess Time
is a gentle, beautifully illustrated story that teaches children about empathy, fairness, and the power of love-one wagging tail at a time.
