This is another great installment of the JoJo Makoons series--this one with themes of being healthy and helping others. JoJo is such a great character--almost Amelia Bedelia levels of misunderstanding others' lessons literally, but at the same time despite her refusal to go along with the rules, she always finds a way to do the right thing in her own way.

I really enjoyed this book. Jojo really reminded me that reading allows us to see the world through others eyes. Kids are great.

I love JoJo. She’s written so well because it’s exactly how children think and act. Her imagination is incredible. 

This one is all about a snow day on the reservation and being healthy! Jo Jo’s idea of healthy was hilarious. I loved all of their activities!
