In wellness we read Jabari Jumps by Gaia Cornwall. In it, the young Jabari works up the courage to take a big, important leap - jumping off the diving board! He feels ready. He has finished his swim lessons and passed the swim test. But when his dad squeezes his hand, he squeezes back. Jabari Jumps is a great story about being brave, overcoming our fears and that it's okay to be scared of something new. Below is a link to a read aloud of the book and some discussion questions.
