The Picture Jumper
Mary Missig
A year after his dad's death, twelve-year-old Lincoln wonders whether his, strait-laced but clearly struggling, mom will ever tell him what really happened the night of the car accident. How did she walk away, and his dad didn't? When would life return to normal? As it turns out, never again.
After a tearful wish and a clap of thunder, Lincoln discovers he can jump into pictures. Exploring the solar system to the Constitutional Convention to the Titanic, Lincoln gathers clues about his dad's death. But what will he find—about his dad, about his mom, about himself? And can he keep his gift a secret when his teacher and classmates suspect something?
Join Lincoln on a ride through history as he comes to terms with grief and growing up without a dad. The Picture Jumper is a story of embodying curiosity and courage to confront loss and forge forgiveness. It's a story about finding who you are and loving every part. It's about letting go, but also holding on—to each other.
