I absolutely loved reading about your experience! I would probably be similarly terrified and in awe. I have this love hate relationship with water. I’m definitely getting a copy of this for my kiddo’s birthday, which is a few days after the book comes out. And let’s be honest… the book is also for me. I can’t wait to see it!!

Thanks, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! And I do the same thing with my kiddo with books, haha. I buy them for her and then read them myself. 😂
