Critics Review
Sue Whiting captures all the excitement of looking forward to experiencing something new, and all the trepidation … Meredith Thomas’s pictures are full of colour and movement … This would be a great springboard book for pre-school children. * Bookseller+Publisher *
… This is a sweet, gentle story that explores the theme of fears and overcoming those fears. While it’s a terrific choice for reluctant swimmers, it is also a great pick for young kids who are looking forward to their first summer on the beach. Special mention must be made of Thomas’s superb illustrations … she has captured the movement of water to perfection. * Babyology *
