Discover how Jack Frost keeps the hearts of children happy in the third picture book in Academy Award winner William Joyce’s New York Times bestselling and “dazzlingly inventive” (Publishers Weekly) The Guardians of Childhood series.Before Jack Frost was Jack Frost, he was Nightlight, the most trusted and valiant companion of Mim, the Man in the Moon. But when Pitch destroys Mim’s world, he nearly destroys Nightlight too, sending him plunging to Earth where, like Peter Pan, he is destined to remain forever a boy, frozen in time. And while Nightlight has fun sailing icy winds and surfing clouds, he is also lonely without his friend Mim. To keep the cold in his heart from taking over, he spreads it to the landscapes around him and earns a new name: Jack Overland Frost. But a true friend always comes through, and on one particularly bleak night, Mim shines down and shows Jack a group of children in great peril. Through helping them, Jack finds the warmth he’s been yearning for, and realizes bringing joy to others can melt his own chill. It is this realization—that there will always be children who need moments of bravery, who need rosy cheeks, who need to build snowmen, and who are then eager for a spring day—that makes Jack realize why he is a forever boy, and worthy of becoming a Guardian of Childhood.

4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. William Joyce's JACK FROST is my all time favorite one! By Mundie Moms & Mundie Kids Book Reviews William Joyce has once again captured the wonder of childhood with Jack Frost's story. Told in the same fashion, and given the same visually stunning, old-fashioned illustrations, the story of Jack Frost is as mesmerizing as the first two books in The Guardians of Childhood series, The Man In The Moon, and The Sandman. The long awaited arrival of this book's release lives up to all that I had hoped it would be and more.I've long been a fan of William Joyce's The Guardian's of Childhood series. These books are some of our all time favorite children's picture books. Not only are the illustrations visually stunning, the stories themselves are captivating for readers of all ages. The stories are about guardians who's job is to keep safe the merriment of childhood. Protecting their hopes, their dreams, and their hearts. These valiant Guardians offer hope, and courage, as they keep children safe from darkness of Pitch.Jack Frost's story is one I've always been fascinated with. Learning about Jack Frost's origins, and his history with the Man In The Moon is something I absolutely loved reading about. Jack Frost's story is one of courage, and valor. I have always admired his character, but do so even more, now that I know more about him. The story about Jack Frost is about who Jack was before he became Jack Frost, how he became Jack Frost, and what he does now, as a Guardian of Childhood. I imagine that if you already didn't love Jack Frost, you will after you read his story.This book is one of my all time favorite children's books. Jack Frost is definitely my favorite out of the Guardians of Childhood series. That is saying a lot, considering I loved the previous two books in the series. If you have not yet done so, I highly recommend picking up the series. If you've already read the first two books in the series, than I definitely recommend picking up Jack Frost's book.To William Joyce, thank you for brining Jack Frost's story to life!

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful from cover to cover. a new favorite. By Fairytale mama Beautifully illustrated and written as expected of Joyce's books. I can't tell you how much my son loves these books, man in the moon is his favorite still, but we read this tonight because he was so excited when it came in the mail. He actually wanted to go to bed tonight just to read it. He spent fifteen minutes after the story was over looking at the pictures and recounting the story to me as though I hadn't just read it to him (he's three)I live for these moments. And this book was amazingly beautiful (I love that nightlight is Jack)My son adores all of the Joyce books (fantastic flying books is another favorite of ours) and I'm planning on buying the series of Guardian books for the older age group so that we'll have those as well.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Shooting off from the movie's storyline a bit By Dione Basseri So, if you're a fan of the Rise of the Guardians movie, this is going to throw you a bit. The books and the movie, at this point, may need to be considered separate universes. Rather than Jack Frost being the spirit of a child who died saving his sister, he's sort of the second form of Nightlight, the protector of the Man in the Moon.But, if you ignore the connection to the movie and focus just on the quality of the book, it's...okay. The artwork in this series is phenomenal, full of little details and striking color choices. You could easily frame some of the pages for decoration in your child's room.However, the plot is a bit too complex for most children's books. I'm not entirely sure which market this is best suited to. Fans of the movies would be, as I said, disappointed. The book is way too text-heavy for young listeners and early readers. And the plot of the series is convoluted enough that those reading it just because it looks pretty might be disappointed.But, despite that issue, the book is still SO PRETTY that I think evening it out to a four-star is acceptable.
