Magnus the Mongoose and his friend, Patch the Donkey live in the bushes

neighbouring the Sunny Square School. They appear during break time to take

Shelly, Muka, Amita, Ricky and Tuffy (the SMARTs) on varied adventures.

They explore the island and learn about the melting pot of wonder that is the rich Jamaican and Caribbean culture, all while having fun in the sun.  Of course, their journey never goes smoothly; the mischievous Rolie the Calf is always involved! Magnus the Mongoose is a truly delightful story that will get 1st and 2nd generation Jamaican children reading books and learning about their rich culture and heritage.
