[Sean Harding · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very short book by prolific author Arena, part of a series featuring different sports, and I guess promoting sports for youngsters, this one is swimming, and the art of diving, and the great Australian belly whacker. We've all done one at some point!

A fun early chapter-book story about swimming classes. Emma imagines all sorts of different animals to help her master the different techniques her teacher is showing the class. But will it enable her to beat the competitive Oliver? I recommend for Year 1-3 students.
