You Can Swim, Jim by Kaye Umansky
A rhyming picture book designed to make children laugh and to instil swimming confidence. Jim can only stand on the edge of the pool while the others are splashing around, until suddenly he falls in - and finds, to everyone's surprise, that he can swim after all.
Umansky, Kaye: - Kaye Umansky was born in Plymouth in Devon, England. She went to Teacher's Training College, after which she taught in London primary schools for twelve years, specializing in music and drama. In her spare time, she sang and played keyboards with a semiprofessional soul band. She now writes full time and has written more than twenty-five books of fantasy, fiction, and poetry for children.
