About This Item
Houghton Mifflin, Boston 1981. 5th Printing, 1981. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Illus By Author. Oblong quarto, hardcover, small school stamp on endpaper else VG in green boards. No dj. Caldecott Medal winner. The game under the tree looked like a hundred others Peters and Judy had at home. But they were bored and restless and, looking for something interesting to do, thought they'd give Jumanji a try. Little did they know when they unfolded its ordinary-looking playing board that they were about to be plunged into the most exciting and bizarre adventure of their lives. Van Allsburg's second book. Made into movie. 32 pp. unpaginated.
Synopsis
Jumanji is the title of a 1981 children's illustrated short story written and illustrated by the American author Chris Van Allsburg. It was made into a 1995 film of the same name. Both the book and the movie are about a magical board game that implements real animals and other jungle elements as the players are playing the game. The troubles which the players have to overcome appear in real life, not only in the board game.
