What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and safe. It touches on the universal childhood fear of deep water and the unknown, but does so through a lens of empowerment. The resolution is hopeful and realistic, acknowledging that while she is small now, growth is a certainty.
Ideal Reader
A 4-year-old who is starting to notice the difference between themselves and older children, perhaps a child who is hesitant to try new physical activities like swimming or climbing.
