Meet Jerry Lawson, the Black engineer who revolutionized the video game industry in this picture book biography. Before Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch, there was a tinkerer named Jerry Lawson. As a boy, Jerry loved playing with springs, sprockets, and gadget-y things. When he grew up, Jerry became an engineer—a professional tinkerer—and in the 1970s, he turned his technical know-how to video games. Back then, if players wanted a new video game, they had to buy an entire new console, making gaming very expensive. Jerry was determined to fix this problem, and despite roadblocks along the way and having to repeat a level or two, it was never game over for his mission. Eventually, he leveled up and built a brand-new kind of video game console: one that allowed players to switch out cartridges! He also founded Video Soft, Inc., the first African American–owned video game company in the country. Jerry’s tinkering and inventions changed the video gaming world forever.

Now, Opal has hung up their adventuring hat and is living the life of a happy creafter, far more likely to build you a bed than fight a Wither.

And that adventure might be bigger than she could ever have imagined. One day, a traveling adventure named Braun arrives in town, claiming to know how to defeat a Warden—a fearsome mob that not even Opal has bested.

But along the way, Opal might just rediscover their love of adventure, and realize that it’s even more fun when someone else is there to share in the story….
