Event Details

Join APL Kids for our fall book club featuring Swim Team, written by Johnnie Christmas.  This graphic novel is a heartwarming story covering relevant social issues while still being a relatable story for middle readers.  

"Bree can't wait for her first day at her new middle school, Enith Brigitha, home to the Mighty Manatees--until she's stuck with the only elective that fits her schedule, the dreaded Swim 101. The thought of swimming makes Bree more than a little queasy, yet she's forced to dive headfirst into one of her greatest fears. Lucky for her, Etta, an elderly occupant of her apartment building and former swim team captain, is willing to help."
