Jabari Jumps
Working up the courage to take a big, important leap is hard, but Jabari is almost absolutely ready to make a giant splash. Jabari is definitely ready to jump off the diving board. HeĆ¢ĀĀs finished his swimming lessons and passed his swim test, and heĆ¢ĀĀs a great jumper, so heĆ¢ĀĀs not scared at all. Ć¢ĀĀLooks easy,Ć¢ĀĀ 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 canĆ¢ĀĀt help but root for.
