Van Allsburg, C. (1981). Jumanji. New York: Houghton Mifflin. Ages 5-8. Fiction.
Two children find themselves pulled into the the board game they are playing. To end the game and the chaos, they must roll a 12. A delightful story, beautifully illustrated in black and white by Van Allsburg. This books can also be used as a lead into the concept of probability.
