Government In Action

Nicky Fifth books

Welcome

Nicky Fifth and T-Bone, the main characters from Award-winning NJ author, Lisa Funari-Willever’s Nicky Fifth chapter book series, spend their time exploring New Jersey’s hundreds of towns, attractions, and offerings learning about the state’s history, geography, and culture along the way. Their contribution to the state and their dedication to introducing New Jersey to New Jersey has resulted in some very interesting developments, including three legislative bills to name the characters New Jersey’s Official Junior Ambassadors.

 

Enjoy Real New Jersey as we bring the Garden State to life and provide teachers, parents, and students with a free, interesting, and interactive way to learn about our history, geography, and hundreds of amazing offerings.
