Review: The Big Picture by Jenny B. Jones

Review by Gigi Hoffman

The Big Picture, the final installment of Jenny B. Jones‘ Katie Parker Production series, was a laugh out loud read! (I was there when my best friend read it and she giggled almost non-stop.) Katie Parker is such a realistic character, very easy to relate to with her spunky attitude and witty humor. The crazy antics of her foster grandmother, “Mad” Maxine, are hilarious–especially the ones she gets Katie involved in. They remind me of the crazy stunts I pull with my best friend. Katie and the other characters seemed like real people, friends I half-expected to step right off the pages of the novel and into real life. Jones does a superb job of blending humor and real-life drama, pulling it together into a can’t-put-it-down read that you really must read.
