Saturday Is Swimming Day

by Hyewon Yum

Description

Every Saturday, one little girl heads to swimming lessons—until the day her stomachache shows up again, right before she reaches the pool. With the noise, the slippery floor, and a swim cap that feels far too tight, she’s faced with a choice: push through or take a different kind of brave step. Guided by her instructor, Mary, she learns that it’s okay to sit by the edge and still be part of the lesson. Through gentle humor and reassuring moments, this story explores anxiety, comfort, and self-advocacy, celebrating small victories and the support that helps children feel safe enough to try again.
