He wants to stay on solid land as he does not have gills and can not breathe under water. When her owners present her with a doggie life jacket she is still not sure, but when she is dropped in the water, it is either sink or swim. Because the life jacket keeps her afloat, Ellie learns to swim and has fun too. The illustrations are a hoot. They are cartoonish, colourful and show Ellie's dramatic side, including the scary world under the water. As Ellie learns that she can swim, she gains confidence. My grandson loved this story. He is taking swimming lessons so could relate to the story, especially the fear of sinking. This is a great story for toddlers and primary students who are trying to learn something new. It will teach them about overcoming fears, becoming confident and trusting their parents. A good book for family, class and school libraries. The publisher provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley. ( ) I loved how bright and colorful this story is particularly how the illustrator makes the pictures come to life as if they’re full of action instead of just sitting on the page; you almost feel as if Ellie is actually swimming in the water, walking on the landing, etc. The darling story it tells about facing your fears, with lilting rhymed sentences, is perfect for us because I have a young daughter who is afraid of swimming so reading her a story about someone else being scared and how they got over it plus found some amazing adventures in the process has made her want to try swimming again. Learning to swim can be scary and this book in natural rhythm and rhyme shows how Ellie overcomes fear of the new environment of creature filled deep water to swim with confidence like a fish. The illustrations by Serene Wyatt are bold and dynamic with superb facial expressions on Ellie. Because the cover has the wording "Life's Little Lessons #2" I'm not going to be hesitant in getting other titles in this series. I received an advance copy for review from the Goodreads giveaway program. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
