What Are Jubi Books?

Jill Buffington is the mastermind behind Jubi Books, a series that celebrates the magic of creativity, dreams, intuition and happiness.

In each book, Jubi embarks on adventures that encourage children to tap into their imagination and follow their hearts. Buffington takes young readers through valuable lessons on overcoming challenges, exploring new ideas, and instilling the idea that anything is possible when pursuing passions with enthusiasm and joy.

Born and raised in New England, Buffington aims to put forth books that support social-emotional learning by encouraging children to be creative, trust themselves, choose happiness and pursue their dreams.

“My grandmother instilled a strong artistic foundation (in me), as well as many of the creative inspirations I used today,” Buffington said.

Inspired by her grandmother and her thirst for art and creativity, Buffington finds joy in providing free readings with Dartmouth Mall’s book series.
