Main Characters Jack Jack is an 8 year old boy with glasses and
short brown hair. He is Annies big brother. He carries a backpack
that he uses to carry Teddy and special objects that he finds on

places and things he writes them down. Annie Annie has blonde hair

Supporting Characters Teddy is a boy that is under a spell that
turned him into a brown and stubby dog. He goes with Jack and Annie
to the jungle in India to find the third special object that is
needed to turn him back into a boy. He showed his bravery by
barking at the tigers in the jungle to save Jack and Annie from
being eaten. Kah and Ko are two langur monkeys that show Jack and
Annie how to swing from the vines in the jungle to save them from
the boa constrictor trying to strangle them.

Summary of the Plot Jack and Annie find Teddy in Frog Creek
woods on their way to the tree house. When they get there, they
find a note from Morgan Le Fay that tells them they need to find
the third special object in a forest far away in India that will
help turn Teddy back into a boy. When they get there they meet two
monkeys named Kah and Ko that help them avoid some of the dangers
of the forest. They also meet a tiger that is stuck in a trap.
After helping the tiger he begins to chase Jack and Annie. Teddy
saves them by barking at the tiger. Then Kah and Ko bring Jack and
Annie to their blind friend the hermit. He gives Jack and Annie a
beautiful lotus flower that ends up being the third gift they need
to turn Teddy back into a boy.
Slide 7
My Opinion of the Book I enjoyed reading this book because it
was about two kids on an adventure in a far away place. The
characters helped one another throughout the adventure. I am
excited to read the next book where Jack and Annie find the fourth
gift that they need to turn Teddy back into a boy.
Slide 8
My Favorite Part of the Book My favorite parts of the book were
when Jack and Annie meet the two Langur monkeys named Kah and Ko
and when they protect Jack and Annie from the cobra in a tree by
showing them that they can swing on vines to escape.
