The Boy Who Wouldn’t Swim
Finn lives with his dad on a boat on the west coast of Scotland. He loves his dad very much, but every day is hard for him because he has to carry a secret. His dad isn’t at all well. And the one thing he doesn’t want Finn to do is learn to swim. The problem is, that’s the one thing Finn really wants to do.
