Jabari is inventing a machine that will fly all the way across the yard But making it go from CRASH to WHOSH will take grit, patience, and maybe even a little help from his sister.

Good thing Dad is there for a pep talk and his little sister, Nika, is there to assist, fairy wings and all. With the endearing father-child dynamic of Jabari Jumps and engaging mixed-media illustrations, Gaia Cornwall's tale shows that through perseverance and flexibility, an inventive thought can become a brilliant reality.Lauren DeStefano is a full-time author and professional collector of cats.
