Chris Van Allsburg fulfilled the promise of his first book, The Garden of Abdul Gasazi, with his second, the 1982 Caldecott Medal-winner, Jumanji. Again working in pencil with remarkable results, the author/illustrator spins a fantasy tale in which two young bored children find an abandoned jungle board game in a park, take it home, and discover that playing the game releases real wild animals and adventures. A Fine first edition in a Fine dust jacket.
