| Summary, etc.: | "Alf is scared of water--but he's not about to let that keep him from enjoying summer with his water-loving friends. In this slyly humorous story, Alf creatively confronts his fears and comes up with a surprising solution. It's the summer and everyone is out swimming under the sun...well, almost everyone. While all his friends love canoeing down rivers and splashing in the community pool, Alf would rather remain on dry land. This makes hanging with his friends difficult! What can Alf do to enjoy his summer as much as his splish-splashing friends, without getting so much as a single toe wet? From one of Sweden's most beloved children's authors, I Do Not Like Water is an award-winning celebration of whimsical individuality and overcoming your fears"-- Provided by publisher. |
