1-3Gym Shorts series.
Illustrated by
Adam McCauley.
Rita is excited to be a Dolphin; her enthusiasm falters after realizing her faster-swimming friends are Sharks. Should she quit swimming or conquer the flip turn? Humorous black-and-white illustrations provide ample visual cues. This reliable series is full of sports details as well as social details of the kids who play them.
