Centered around a board game come to life, this story sparks the imagination of its readers. Jumanji is a Caldecott award-winning story about a boy and girl who discover a magical board game while their parents are away at the opera. Peter and Judy decide to bring the board game home and play with it, but they quickly discover that Jumanji is far more than an ordinary experience. As the children roll the dice, a jungle begins to emerge in their house. Soon Peter and Judy must make an important decision: whether to play Jumanji through to the end of the game, or to stop playing and return the game to the park where they originally discovered it.
COLLEGE OF WILLIAM & MARY
The Center for Gifted Education (CFGE) at William & Mary University (College of William & Mary), is a research and development center providing services to educators, policy makers, graduate students, researchers, and parents in support of the needs of gifted and talented individuals. Located in Williamsburg, Virginia, the CFGE has established an international reputation for excellence in research, curriculum development, and service. Several major grants, including funding from the Jacob K. Javits Gifted and Talented Students Education Act, have provided significant support for the work of the Center. In 2012, the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation awarded CFGE the funds needed for a summer residential camp for low income, high-ability children, for four consecutive years. In 2015, William & Mary alumni, Mike and Nancy Petters, through the Petters Family Foundation, provided additional financial support to the program. In 2016, the Petters Family Foundation has committed to fully fund the program for the next four years. Camp Launch is only the beginning of the Center for Gifted Education’s goal to bring educational equality to all gifted students.
