Jack is a cheeky and curious boy who lives in Singapore. In Why Do People Cry When They're Happy? Jack is at the airport, where he notices some travellers crying when they are happy and others crying when they are unhappy. Aren’t tears supposed to be sad? “Why do people cry when they are happy?” he asks. 

In Will I Get Old?, Jack notices wrinkles around Mama’s eyes one night during storytime, and he starts to worry: “What if I don’t recognise Mama one day? Will you grow old? Will I grow old too?” he asks.

In Can I Hit Back at a Bully?, three bullies steal Jack and his bestfriend's football and called them mean names. During taekwondo practice, Jack asks, "Can I use taekwondo to hit back at the bullies?"

In Do Farts Make Old People Go Faster?, Jack hears some odd noises while going to the supermarket with Mama. Whoooosh! Prrrahhp! Bssshhh! He then sees old people zooming forward. What is happening?

In Why Do You Always Say No?, Jack is drawn to the fireplace when he visits his grandmother in England, having never seen one before. As he goes to touch the dancing flames, Mama stops him with a firm "No!" "Why do you alway say no?" Jack asks

In Why Am I a Lonely Only?, Jack returns from school looking sad. "Why am I alone?" Jack questions.

Only Mama knows exactly how to answer—unconventionally.
