Charlotte Zolotow Honor winner: Building courage for that epic plunge is tough, but Jabari's almost totally set to cannonball into glory. Fresh from acing swim lessons and tests, Jabari declares himself fearless atop the pool's diving board. "Piece of cake," he boasts, eyeing kids splash down. Yet Dad's reassuring hand-grip gets a nervous squeeze back—time for epic-stretch warmups and plotting the ultimate signature leap. Debut creator Gaia Cornwall nails a tender poolside rite: patient Dad cheers on determined Jabari's bold heart. Root for this unstoppable kid conquering jitters one wobbly step at a time. Perfect for bravery chats (ages 4-8), it's pure inspiration—like Jabari's inventive spark in Jabari Tries. When fear looms large, one squeeze unlocks the jump within.
