Overview
A young swimmer panics in a crowded community pool, and it feels like there isn''t even any room for her tears. Out of place where she was once at home, the girl swims down, down, into the deepest deep... and embarks on a surrealist journey to the swampy world under the under. As she rests there with her feelings, the girl finds power in embracing who she is - even the swampiest parts. And her triumphant return to the pool inspires the other children to be their truest selves, too. This dreamlike picture book models creative ways for children - and adults - to visualise and understand their big feelings and accept their inner selves. Award-winning illustrator Byron Eggenschwiler is at his imaginative best, delivering art that pairs beautifully with author Dorson Plourde''s poetic magical realism.
