Jumanji is a 1981 fantasy children's picture book written and illustrated by American author Chris Van Allsburg.[1] The book is about an enchanted board game that incorporates wild animals and other jungle elements as the game is played in real life. The book was adapted into a 1995 film of the same name and spawned a franchise that includes three sequels and an animated series.

A sequel to the book, entitled Zathura, was released in 2002.
