Dive into the excitement and fears of a first swimming lesson.
A young girl faces her first swimming lesson, filled with both excitement and fear. From choosing the right swimsuit to wondering if the pool filter might swallow her, she navigates every worry and thrill. Will she conquer her fears and take the plunge? Discover the imaginative journey that turns trepidation into triumph, as she learns that the water holds more fun than fright. By the end, you'll be ready to jump in too!
First swimming lessons can be exciting and terrifying, but this joyful and imaginative guide shows young readers how to conquer the pool.
From what to wear (a bathing suit, of course!) to what to expect (no, your teacher will not be a mermaid), 3, 2, 1 Jump! covers the what if’s and how to’s of getting in the pool for the first time. There’s a lot to worry about (Can I be sucked into the filter?) and even more to be excited about (When can I wear flippers?), and our narrator has thought of everything. By the time she’s ready, you to will want to jump in!
