M. E. Mohalland

Since the debut of their first book, Silly Nomads From Palmerston Close, co-authors M. E. Mohalland and J. L. Lewis have continued to publish additional stories about characters Suhcrom and Naddih, two adventurous Jamaican brothers who use their imaginations to explore the world around them. In every volume of this series, the stories contain many true-to-life childhood experiences of co-author Marcus Mohalland when he was growing up in Portmore, Jamaica. This special anniversary edition was compiled to commemorate the progress of Silly Nomads as a book series by combining all five current volumes within one binder. One addition to this is a page at the end of each volume listing four simple yet thought-provoking questions, included as a tool for readers, parents, and teachers to use for further discussion of the stories. The five stories contained within Jamaican Adventures are (Vol 1) Silly Nomads From Palmerston Close; (Vol2) Silly Nomads Go Ninja Crazy; (Vol 3) Jubilee Bike Race Heroes; (Vol 4) Journey to the Race Track; and (Vol 5) Hunt for Pirate Treasures. Beautifully designed, this publication is a wonderful addition to any home or school library, and would be a great resource for elementary teachers to use in the classroom.

With their minds fixed on finding some treasures, Suhcrom and Naddih have planned a secret pirate adventure, and this time, they've inited their best friends, Sterlin and Rodney, to come along. Having learned about pirates in school, Naddih draws a map that would lead them to the biggest treasure troves supposedly buried at Port Henderson Beach centuries ago. As the four friends begin their quest, their imaginations run wild with hopes of finding valuable treasures--treasures like rubies, diamonds and pearls Although some troubles slow them down along the way, they arrive at the beach with great anticipation. After hours of digging, with their hopes nearly dashed, the boys are not ready to give up. Relying on Rodney's "special sight," the four comrades suddenly discover a treasure...a unique treasure that leads to more mystery. This discovery not only spurs them on to keep searching but ignites Suhcrom and Naddih's desire to solve the mystery.

The biggest horse races of the year are happening the day after Christmas at Caymanas Park, near Newlands, Jamaica. Suhcrom's grandmother, who sells food at the races, needs her food cart wheeled to the track, and ten-year-old Suhcrom is the only one available. He has never pushed this heavy cart by himself before. Is he really strong enough? What if he runs into trouble? As Suhcrom waves goodbye to his Mama, he is determined to make her proud. But he faces one challenge after another...and narrowly avoids disaster Still he keeps going and never gives up. Each book in the Silly Nomads series recounts many true life experiences of co-author Marcus Mohalland as a young boy growing up in Jamaica. In this story, he is ten-year-old Suhcrom. The story embodies the spirit of determination, reminding us all to never give up.

Jooba, a Jamaican monkey, would rather spend his time playing in his yard than doing any work.

With his list in hand, Jooba seeks help from his animal friends. Not only does Jooba find going to the market to be fun, he learns that asking for help is the best way to accomplish an unfamiliar task.
