Jack's Story

Meet Jack – the first character in the KETCH series.

Jack is like all other boys his age; he gets up every morning, brushes his teeth, has breakfast and goes to school.

Jack’s daily routine, however, is slightly different because he has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. His morning routine may be slightly different to yours. The shoes he wears may differ to yours and the emotions he feels during the day may not be the emotions you feel at school. We are all different and have unique qualities. Let’s embrace what makes us who we are.

Follow a day in the life of Jack and explore how you can show KETCH to your friends and family.

Jack, the Pirate with a Secret

This is a fun, action-packed story with a twist at the end to allow for discussion between reader and listener. This could be used as a focus for discussion in PSHE lessons or as a one-to-one chat between the child and parent/carer.

Jack, the main character, is a very likeable and charming pirate. He appears to be extremely courageous. Throughout the story, he is portrayed as a very brave character who steers and leads his ship, The Mucky Duck, through a storm to a place of safety. Clearly, his crew look up to him for inspiration and guidance at a time when they are very afraid, but Jack performs his duties without hesitation. The story frequently reminds the reader/audience that although Jack appears to be brave, he has a secret! The story ends with the crew and The Mucky Duck reaching an idyllic cove where everyone is safe and happy!

A land filled with:

‘Treasure and gold and jewels,

palm trees and coconuts!’

All that Jack wants to do is to go to sleep in his cosy bunk in his cosy little cabin and dream of his adventures all over again!

Jake and the Magic Handle

Jake was bored. He’d had a dull day at school and was walking home. His dog, Jack, had just squeezed through a gap in the hedge and was barking for Jake to join him. Jake didn’t want to but Jack just wouldn’t stop barking. So Jake grumpily crawled through the hedge determined to grab Jack and go home for his tea. He went to grab Jack and as he did so saw something on the ground that changed his life. Find out what Jake and Jack found – it might change your life too!

Jake the Crocodile

In today's society it is easy for adults and children alike to get swept up in social media expectations around what somebody should look like. It is also incredibly easy to jump to conclusions and make judgements about others.

Jake the Crocodile is about taking a step back to not only look at the outside of a person (or crocodile!) but what is on the inside.

It is more important than ever to teach our children to be empathic and Jake will form a special place in your child's heart so they stop and think about their judgements of other people and take the opportunity to see past external appearances to open a whole new world of opportunity for friendship.

Imagine a world where we didn't judge and people were valued for their individual characteristics. Jake will help your child see that there is beauty in everyone, if you just take the time to look.
