Jabari Jumps

32 pp. | Candlewick | May, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-7838-8 $15.99
(2) K-3 Jabari is ready to jump off the diving board! First, however, he decides to let everyone behind him jump first. And then he stretches. Finally, Jabari admits that he might be a little...scared. Luckily, our young hero has his father and baby sister's loving encouragement. Watercolor and collage illustrations perfectly depict a hazy summer day against a backdrop of warm brown skin tones and cool aqua water.
