Book 1 - Jack the Bad Crow Due to an unfortunate accident, a crow mother and her young son, Jack, find themselves living in a barn on a family farm. Jack is less than thrilled with their new living arrangements. He doesn't hit it off with any of the farm animals and quickly earns the reputation of being a "bad crow." Jack's mother encourages him to befriend a rabbit named Johnny and a squirrel named Alex. The three boys have many exciting adventures together. Their friendship grows until a Christmas Eve party where things go terribly wrong. Jack is left with a choice: will he embrace his good side or truly become Jack the Bad Crow? Book 2 - Jack the Bad Crow Strikes Again After Johnny and Alex stopped Jack the Bad Crow from ruining Christmas, life on the farm returned to normal . . . for a while. Unfortunately, those carefree days are brought to an end when a neighbor shares the news that Jack plans to strike the farm again. But this time, Jack is bringing his entire gang of crows with him! Will Johnny, Alex, and the other farm animals be able to stop Jack the Bad Crow again? Book 3 - Jack the Bad Crow Returns After a devastating loss, Jack decides to not return to the cornfields. He finds a new home and meets an unexpected friend—a crow named Margot. As the year passes, numerous changes come to the farm. Some changes are welcomed, while others are not. One change in particular brings suspicion and leaves many of the farm animals asking, “Did Jack really change, or is he up to something?”
