When she gets to the pool it's loud, the floor is wet and slippery, and her swim cap is too tight. Her swimming instructor, Mary, says it's OK to sit by the edge if she doesn't want to get in the water this week. The next Saturday the girl has a stomachache again, but with Mary's gentle encouragement, she eventually manages to make it into the pool to practice her kicks. Little by little, the girl's confidence grows -- until one Saturday comes around when she has no stomachache at all  In a charming and relatable story about trying something new, author-illustrator Hyewon Yum shows that sometimes a little bravery and a lot of patience are all you need to face your fear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Candlewick Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/12\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780763691172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 10.70w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2018 pg. 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2018 pg. 59\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2018 pg. 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2018 pg. 50 - Superior,Well Above Average\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e503526 \/ Saturday Is Swimming Day\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.9 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Hyewon Yum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44849035837621,"sku":"9780763691172","price":16.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_77a99b33-2d0b-4f78-bfcb-bb53ff415702.jpg?v=1732634666","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/saturday-is-swimming-day-9780763691172","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
