Amazon Description

Although she has found many excuses for refusing to take swimming lessons, Jane finally faces the inevitable and jumps into the water for a very good reason.

One Potato Review

In which a rhinestone-glasses-wearing smart-aleck refuses to dip so much as her toes in the water, until she finally decides to set an example for someone younger and more genuinely terrified, when the legend she enjoys telling about herself becomes secondary to her truer, braver nature - or something like that. It’s a good little story, and a pretty funny book – someone wears a muumuu, the girl think she’s a cat – and there are probably children for whom it proves motivational. Otherwise, enjoy!
