Jack's room

For five-year-old Jack, the room is the whole world. It's where he and Ma eat, sleep, play, and learn. Though Jack doesn't know it, the place where he feels completely safe and protected, that room is also the prison where his mother has been held against her will. Told in Jack's amusing and poignant voice, this is a story of immense love that survives terrifying circumstances, and the umbilical bond that unites mother and son.
