Jack the Jackass, another name for a Kookaburra, was inspired by a photograph taken by Judy's brother Shane Short, a keen photographer. It was Shane who suggested to her that she follow her artistic talents. Judy has painted more birds, especially since living by the sea. "There is such an abundance of wildlife to see everyday."

Jack Short, the author of "Jack's Story", is Judy Frost's Dad. This is a great read telling the story of his early life on the Atherton Tablelands, Queensland Australia. It's a story of fun and hardship, joy and sorrow. It's set in the pioneering days of North Queensland when trees were felled and farms established, amidst a tropical paradise which few farmers had time to enjoy. Jack worked hard, as you'll find out. He also learned how to read and write and to value education highly. He even married the local schoolteacher and produced a couple of little schoolteachers as well as two other fine children.

If you find your children/students have difficulty writing things down for themselves, then this book will help you to help them. Again author, Judy Frost, has come up with an easy, but effective way to quickly turn children on to writing for themselves with accuracy. She uses time honoured techniques of copying, dictation and evaluation all built into her strategy, CODES. It is easy to use and does the trick. In "Now Write This" she teaches you how to use CODES with your child. She also incorporates a technique for teaching children how to spell, not just for Friday test but for always.

The second in Judy Frost's travel series is "To Breakfast in the Bentley". It was inspired by stories of the Tower and its bridge, of the history that went before and of being in the moment in this great city of London, that never really sleeps.
