Hey everyone, I thought I'd tell you about this great series of books. It's the Smarter than Jack series, originally only in New Zealand but spreading thoughout the world. They produce these awesome books filled with stories about animals showing how smart they are. A portion of the money from each book sold goes toward an animal charity like the SPCA, so far they've donated about $140 000 towards animal welfare. But here's the best part, anyone can contribute a true story that they have about an animal showing how smart it is. You don't get paid for your story but that doesn't matter because you're effectively giving to animal charities, plus you get a free copy of the book that your story's in sent to you when it's released. You can also put in a picture if you have one. It's so exciting when your story is selected and a book comes out with a story about and picture of one of your animal friends. I think the next book is going to be released in America so look out for it. Here's the site if you have an animal story or just want to have a look. You can also arrange to have the story of the week emailed to you. http://www.smarterthanjack.com/
