About The Book
Dive into the journey of life with You're A Good Swimmer, a captivating picture book that answers the age-old question: Where do babies come from?
Readers will quickly discover it's not just about the birds and the bees; it's a celebration of the astounding journey that each person takes towards their first breath.
This picture book will bring families together, engaging readers across ages as it explores the miracle of life alongside the complexity of reproduction, birth, and biology. The story reminds us that the journey to our existence is nothing short of a miracle.
With timeless and inspiring artwork alongside straightforward and lively text, You're A Good Swimmer emphasizes that taking our very first breath is the grand prize of the greatest race of all.
This STEM book is suitable for children ages five and up, and goes beyond the simple and well-represented "Mommy + Daddy = You" narrative. Instead, it explores the miraculous nature of birth, focusing on inclusive imagery and language without restricting these experiences to specific gender identities or narratives.
You're A Good Swimmer invites readers to celebrate the wonder of life itself, promoting a deeper understanding of our shared human experience and the beauty of diversity.
