In this exploration of what it truly means to swim, expansive vignettes introduce sandpipers, tannin-soaked lakes and the feeling of a small waterfall on sun-soaked shoulders. But what about those who are afraid of the water’s mysterious ways and resist learning to swim? Painting a compelling picture of the many joys and surprises that the water holds, author/illustrator Wong creates a poetic journey that invites children to discover their confidence within to receive the warmth and wonder of the natural world.
