Jabari Jumps by Gaia Cornwall & Freedom Soup by Tami Charles (Bite sized reviews)
I've decided to come up with a new feature, sound bites, or mini bites, bite sized reviews. Still working on the name. But the basic concept will be books that I've only said a few sentences about, which generally are when I review picture books I check out from the library. But may not be limited to them.
Jabari Jumps by Gaia Cornwall
So Welcome I guess to Mini bites? (Hmm maybe)
Book 1:
Jabari Jumps by Gaia Cornwall Series: Jabari #1

Jabari Jumps is a cute book in which a little boy name Jabari is going to show is dad that he can jump off the diving board, even though it's so high up.
This book teaches children a way to over come a fear, and the reward that comes along with facing them.

This book teaches about history and traditions. The learning and making of the soup are past down from one generation to the next.
