Abigail hates to go swimming because everyone calls her a whale. He coach tells her she just needs to think about what she wants to be and so it will happen. If you are scared, thing tall, and be tall, if you are swimming, think shark and splice through the water. You can be anything. I like the message in this book, but as a big girl myself, when I was her age I wouldn’t have thought be big, I would have tried to wish myself thin, so part of me doesn’t like the message (but that is just me). Not bad, and great illustrations.
