Luca Learns To Swim: A Family's Companion to Swim Lessons

Dear Parent Congratulations! Your child is ready to learn to swim. As a professional swim instructor, I can assure you it will be one of the most exciting adventures in his or her young life. Not only will your child learn practical swim skills, he or she will also develop a genuine love of the water, as well as a real respect for both its joys and potential dangers. This book's purpose is to be a companion to formal lessons. It is meant to help you and your child prepare for those lessons in several ways: - To dissolve some of the mystery involved in learning to how to swim - To outline the sequence of skills as they may be introduced, thereby enabling you to best aid your child in coping with any questions or concerns that may arise as new skills are introduced. - To allow you to be involved in your child's process from the beginning It was my intent to write a simple, fun and engaging story that parents and their children will want to read over and over again. During the many years I have been teaching children to swim, I have witnessed many amazing and magical experiences. Some of my more memorable and positive recollections involved children who came to me with strong fears and resistance to learning to swim. These children taught me to be more patient, flexible, adaptable, and creative, and they have inspired me to write this book. Happy Safe Swimming!!
