I loved Jabari Jumps. This one, not so much. The illustrations were a bit off to me, and I don't know, it just didn't have that "je ne sais quoi" that Jabari Jumps had.

I hope there are even more books about Jabari - this was really great, and such a good companion to Jabari Jumps!

abigailbat's review against another edition
Jabari wants to build flying machine. Little sister wants to help, but Jabari's convinced he can do it all on his own. After some frustrating setbacks, is Jabari open to accepting some help?
This is a good story for any kids who struggle with needing to get things perfect, with some good strategies for dealing with the frustration that happens when things don't work out the first time around.

I thought it was good, but not great. It's no Jabari Jumps, but it's a quality story about perseverance and may help some children with a new idea about managing frustrations. Representation matters, so I think this is an essential book for school libraries, I just didn't love it as much as the first Jabari book.
