“The imagination is what allows us to see what others can’t see, dream what others can’t dream, go where others can’t go, and become special. That’s why it’s so important that we support artists with imagination that give our children an experience that makes the impossible, possible while strengthening their outlook on life. What they could do? Who they could become? With The Ship & The Jungle, Dr. Darius M. Walker has given us a vessel for our children to imagine a special journey, a family adventure, an innocent opportunity to use their creative minds that will help them to grow into successful movers and shakers of tomorrow.”
Omar Tyree – New York Times bestseller and NAACP Image Award-winning author
