Jack Frost, a Jack Russell made completely of ice, feels it's his life's purpose to find homes for lost and abandoned animals. Finished homing all the animals before Christmas, Jack has decided to go to Prince Edward Island in Canada for the Jack Frost Festival. And, wherever Jack goes, adventure surely follows.

This trip is no different as Jack learns how thrilling it is to live aboard a ship in the middle of winter. From finding a message in a bottle that turns out to be an SOS, to exploring a lighthouse and making a few unlikely friends, Jack has a lot of stories to tell when he returns home from his adventure in the Maritimes.

While sharing Jacks' escapades, this book for middle readers also communicates the importance of acceptance and love while uniting lonely animals with people who love them.
