Jared Lester, Fifth Grade Jester- Tanya Lloyd Kyi
Have you ever wanted to do something really different? Something that maybe everyone else thinks is a little silly and maybe even impossible? Well, Jared Lester is the funny story of one young boy’s dream. Always full of energy and high spirits, Jeremy discovers the age-old occupation of being a jester. Even though there is no longer a need for this one-time entertainment of kings and queens, Jared believes there must be a way for him to use his juggling and acrobatic skills. Then the most wonderful thing happens- the Queen is coming and Jared will have a chance to perform for her. Will he be able to overcome his fears and perform successfully? Could this still be a chosen career? Only 74 pages long and a fun read, this is a great little book. Listen to a part of the story.
