Jackie packs a powerful punch!
I was drawn to this highly entertaining and informative picture book about his early years and his strict training at the China Drama Academy. He was there for ten years, and survived the tougher than tough18 hour days! I laughed at his very first real-life stunt, which must have inspired his movie stunts, youthful hijinks, and fearlessness when it came to taking risks.
I’ve been lucky enough to meet Jackie several times so this was a must-read for me.
From David's list on picture books on the rocky road to stardom.
