About this listen

Jump Jump is a heartwarming and whimsical tale that celebrates the joy and resilience found in everyday moments. The captivating best-selling audiobook takes listeners on a delightful journey with Lysis and her family as they discover the power of laughter and positivity.

Lysis, a spirited young girl, finds immense joy in jumping on her bed, watching her pillow shrink and expand beneath her. One night, she asks her dad for a bedtime story, and the family gathers on the floor, creating a cozy atmosphere. As the blanket dances in the air, Daddy begins to weave a tale about Nana, her dad's beloved grandmother.

Nana's adventure unfolds as her father recaps a lively beach party filled with Auntie, Uncle, and an array of playful animals. On their way home, a mischievous gust of wind snatches Nana's wig, sending it sailing into the sea. However, instead of being upset, Nana chooses to laugh and express gratitude that the incident didn't happen during their joyful time at the beach.

The story carries a profound message about embracing unexpected events with a positive attitude. Lysis's brother is inspired by Nana's resilience and aspires to emulate her ability to find happiness even in challenging situations. With the story lingering in their hearts, the children snuggle up in their cozy blankets, cherishing the lessons of laughter and optimism.

While the others drift off to sleep, Lysis's exuberance lingers. She continues to jump on her bed, filling the room with joyful sounds and infectious laughter.
