It is a highly focused book with extremely vivid writing. I promise you, with the utmost honesty, that this will change not only the way you think about literature and art, but also the way you live. The simple premise of Jabari jumping looms across the whole book, leaving the reader anticipating and hoping for it to happen.
Not only is the writing remarkable, but so is the illustration, which invokes a feeling of phantasmagoria that perfectly echoes the emotions of the writing. It is fully of marvellous colours and revolutionary brushing techniques, which provide feelings never felt and texture that transport you to the world of the book.
Finally, Jabari, the protagonist. I could write more about him than anyone or anything else. He surpasses every fictional character every and...he speaks for himself.
