Candlewick Press, 2017. Picture Book.
Jabari is definitely ready to jump off the diving board. He's finished his swimming lessons and passed his swim test, and he's a great jumper, so he's not scared at all. "Looks easy," says Jabari, watching the other kids take their turns. But when his dad squeezes his hand, Jabari squeezes back. He needs to figure out what kind of special jump to do anyway, and he should probably do some stretches before climbing up onto the diving board.
In a sweetly appealing tale of overcoming your fears, newcomer Gaia Cornwall captures a moment between a patient and encouraging father and a determined little boy you can't help but root for. --Publisher

When a bug sleeping on a jug is chased by a frog, he has to jump to get away. But then that frog (who's sleeping on a log) is in for a similar surprise! He's attacked by a cat—who needs to jump away from a dog—and on it goes, until not even a shark is free from getting a little fright!
Building on repetition that's fun to read and fun to listen to, Jump! is a rip-roaring, read-aloud with simple rhymes and lively illustrations that leap off the pages. --Publisher
