Jackie Chan has been making movies and amazing audiences with his original and comedic stunts for decades. Pow! Bam! Ow!

Pow! Bam! How? Twist, tumble, and train alongside martial arts hero Jackie Chan in this picture book biography from lauded author Kristen Mai Giang and illustrator and Hong Kong native Alina Chau. Discover how Jackie used his goofball acrobatics to make a name and a style all his own.
