Jabari Jumps

Jabari is sure he's ready to jump off the diving board—he finished his swimming lessons, passed his test, and he's a great jumper. But as he watches other kids take their turns, he suddenly needs to stretch first, then figure out the perfect kind of jump. With his father's patient encouragement, Jabari works through his nervousness and finds the courage to take the plunge. A warm, relatable story about facing fears, trying new things, and the loving support that helps children succeed.
