Emilie and Jack are a young brother and sister off to their first
day of swimming lessons. They're excited and nervous to be finally
learning how to swim. Jack sings a little song to give him courage:
"I'm Swimming Along, singing a song."By the end of this colorful
children's book, everyone has had a great day at the pool, and even
their mom is singing Jack's song Author Lisa Herbertson wrote this
book to encourage children to overcome their fears and to let them
know that swimming is a fun and healthy activity. "I had a part
time job as a swimming teacher, and was surprised at how many
children were afraid of swimming lessons. Swimming is such a
crucial skill to have, and often parents aren't quite sure how to
encourage their kids." Until recently, first-time author Lisa
Herbertson was a professional field hockey player in Europe. She
has a Sports Journalism degree from Canberra University in
Australia, and is a sports writer, based in Sydney. The characters
in Swimming Along were named after her niece and nephew, who were
just learning to swim when she started writing it. Catherine
Kennedy is a Sydney-based artist with a Master of Art from the
College of Fine Arts (UNSW).With teaching experience and two
children of her own, she understands the importance of visual input
in motivation and learning. "While parents are reading, children
are immersed in the illustrations. I hope that the children who see
this book will enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed creating
them."Publisher's website: http:
