Jackpot's heartwarming true story is portrayed through an interesting mix of narrative, original art, photographic images, and the additional, easy-to-view Quick Reference (QR) codes throughout the book. The interactive aspect of seeing Jackpot in action through the QR codes is enjoyable for children and adults of all ages who love to read, watch, and listen. You will enjoy meeting this very special dog named Jackpot, and his delightful friendship with all his "rescued" cat friends, and his human friends, too!
