I Will Swim Next Time

"Gentle, inspiring, and important... for parents looking to quell children's fears, support their dreams, and allow them room to grow." – Kirkus Reviews "When we went to a beach,my tummy felt tight.but it still felt wrong inside. Definitely... possibly... Perhaps I'd swim – next time." At first the big blue sea makes them feel small and scared. Then the child visits a lake and a river, and their fear of water gradually starts to ebb as curiosity begins to flow. A wonderful book for any child who is feeling nervous about new experiences, with lyrical words by Emily Joof and bold, dynamic illustrations by Matilda Ruta.   Available as a hardcover book   Written by Emily Joof Illustrated by Matilda Ruta Published by Floris Books ISBN 978-1782508298
