Abu Dhabi resident, British author John J. Jeffers has launched the first three books from his ‘Uncle John’ series - with an expected three more on the way - that aim to promote intimacy between a parent and a child.

​The stories are set in a small village in North Yorkshire, England, where the author is from. Each story contains a short adventure but also life affirming messages to promote positivity in both the parent and the child. The stories also highlight very important life skills.
