Jessica D. Adams writes children's books about The Underground Toy Society that aim to teach children to love and appreciate what they have, think of others, and hopefully clean their rooms. Jessica's two daughters are the inspiration for the books, as well as co-illustrators for many of the books. Jessica also wrote a short time travel chapter book, Meeting Grandmom, which is a great story for kids as well as adults to remember or talk about lost loved ones and family history.
Jessica has visions of The Underground Toy Society traveling around the world, with many books being created to help teach children to clean their rooms, appreciate what they have, and think of those who may not have as much. While the goals of the books are to help kids want to clean their rooms, appreciate what they have, and think of others, there are no guarantees that kids will learn these lessons. These books are for entertainment purposes and individual results may vary.

All of us can remember that one special toy, no matter how young or old we are. Ellie Elephant was Janiece’s special toy. What will happen if Janiece finds out that Ellie Elephant is missing? Readers go on a journey with Ellie Elephant as she tries to find her way back to her owner, Janiece, before she notices that Ellie Elephant is missing. Ellie Elephant meets many interesting friends along the way who do their best to assist her with getting back home. This story includes action, adventure, problem-solving and social emotional intelligence.
I truly enjoyed reading The Underground Toy Society Helps Ellie Elephant by Jessica D. Adams, which is the sequel to The Underground Toy Society. I loved that Jessica D. Adams involved her children in creating this book. Her daughters illustrated the book and this could be an inspiration to other children who read this story. I became curious to see how this secret society began after reading The Underground Toy Society Helps Ellie Elephant and now I want to read the first story, The Underground Toy Society, to find out. The purpose of The Underground Toy Society Helps Ellie Elephant is two-fold in a dual lesson of coping with getting lost and figuring out what to do about it. This book is the perfect addition to home or classroom libraries. This delightful story opens the door for other topics to explore such as “Stranger danger,” along with camping.
