Fun in the Sun

This is #29 in the popular Pee Wee Scouts series. School has just let out for the summer and all the Pee Wees are looking forward to having fun. At their first meeting during vacation their leader, Miss Peters, announces to the delight of nearly everyone, that the Scouts will be attempting to earn a swimming badge over the summer. Molly, afraid to get even her head wet, is panicked, too embarrassed to tell even her best friend Mary Beth. Soon her excuses for staying out of the water wear thin, and when she at last confesses her inability to swim, the other children react sympathetically and find ways to help. When testing time comes at wheelchair-bound Jody's new pool, Molly conquers her fear, earns her badge, and afterward confesses all to her parents. The fast-moving plot is ideal for early readers. Simple pen and ink illustrations add a nice touch.
