what's inside.
The story.
Jabari has finished his swimming lessons, passed his swim test, and is ready to jump off the diving board - or so he says. As he watches other kids take their turns, he finds reasons to stall, but with gentle encouragement from his patient dad, he works up the courage to take the leap. Gaia Cornwall's warm illustrations perfectly capture the mix of fear and determination.
