From Booklist
Ages 3^-6. Tuck the pig is learning to swim. He doesn't like it, can't bear the thought of water in his eyes and ears. Everyone else at the swimming lesson, including his little sister, seems to just love splashing about, but when it's time for Tuck to go underwater, he just can't bring himself to try. Cheerful, funny pictures in watercolor and pencil show pink pigs splashing about while Tuck inches his way gingerly into the water. Mom pig, large in large sun hat and tropical print sundress, is firm and nice as she slathers the sunscreen on Tuck's face. In a simple plot twist, Tuck loses his lucky spider and has to dive down to get it--underwater and with his eyes open. Children afraid of the water will find comfort in the acceptance of Tuck's fear and in the story of how he finds it in himself to be brave. Hazel Rochman
