Jump

How far would you go to impress the girl of your dreams?

What would you do to save your best friend’s life?

Shaulin and Brandon make a funny video. The kind of dumb video you make to impress a girl. Before long they have loads of fans on YouTube. They even earn themselves a nickname – the Vidiots.

But then they meet Marco. Marco has plans. Exciting plans. Dangerous plans. Plans to make the Vidiots’ stunts better and more spectacular.

But then things go horribly wrong …

Did you know?

Jump is also available in Afrikaans as Spring.

Winner

Jump won an ATKV children’s book award.

Why is Jump ideal for the classroom?

Jump is categorized as a “high/low” book – The subject matter is of high interest to teenage readers, but the writing style suits low reading levels.

If your pupils struggle to read, this writing style would help them and capture their imaginations.

Pupils who study the Afrikaans version of the book, can read the two books side by side to help improve their Afrikaans.

Note:

Jump has a UK and South African edition.

The Afrikaans translation Spring has a school and commercial edition. The school edition has a study guide at the back.
