Author Lynn Mackle’s New Book, "A Bike for Jack," is an Adorable Tale That Tells the True Story of a Young Boy Who Wanted a Bicycle More Than Anything Else in the World

West Palm Beach, FL, May 06, 2024 --(PR.com)-- Lynn Mackle, a Florida-based freelance writer whose articles about people and places of interest have appeared in a variety of books and magazines, has completed her new book, “A Bike for Jack”: a captivating story of a young boy who longs to have a bicycle to explore his community and, with the help of his family’s gardener, finds work so he can save up to purchase one all on his own.

A native of Missouri, author Lynn Mackle was a contributing writer to “The Kansas City Spirit,” which details the history of many of the founders of that great city. During her years in the Midwest, she served as prose editor for “Veterans Voices,” a national publication that encourages hospitalized veterans to write their stories. Lynn Mackle holds master’s degrees in both English and art history, and she pursued graduate studies at the University of Cambridge. Among her best-known works is “Return to the Heartland,” a tribute to the art and life of George Van Millett, on which she is considered an authority.

“Jack loved to explore, and he needed wheels to transport him all around the community,” writes Lynn. “He asked his father to buy him a bike, but his father flatly refused. Jack, however, was fortunate in having an ally in his family’s gardener, an elderly and very wise man known as ‘Uncle Billy.’ Uncle Billy began by showing his young friend how to sharpen the blades on a lawn mower, advising Jack that he could make his own money by mowing the lawns of his neighbors. After Uncle Billy made it possible for Jack to receive a beat-up bicycle from a neighbor, a new world opened up for this boy who gained independence through ingenuity and hard work.”

Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Lynn Mackle’s riveting tale is sure to capture the hearts and minds of young readers as they follow along on Jack’s journey to save up his money to buy his bicycle and explore the world to his heart’s content.
