Lillian muốn học bơi, giống như những người bạn của mình.
Tuy nhiên, hồ bơi rất ồn à o, đặc biệt là khu vực dà nh cho trẻ em, nơi mà mọi thứ đôi khi có thể trở nên hỗn loạn. Điều đó khiến Lillian sợ hãi và khiến cô bé chỉ muốn tránh xa hồ bơi.
Nếu con chìm xuống đáy và không ai để ý thì sao? Lillian lo lắng nói.
Khi bố và Lillian bắt đầu tập bơi cùng nhau, cô bé đã chế ngự được nỗi sợ bơi lội của mình.

Lillian wants to take swimming lessons-just like many of her friends. But when she arrives at the children's pool, the noise, splashing, and fast-paced instructions make everything feel overwhelming. She worries about sinking, about not being heard, and about not being able to keep up.
With warmth and sensitivity, Scared to Swim / Uppoava uimari follows Lillian's journey as she faces her fears one small step at a time. Her parents encourage her gently, and when she begins practicing with Dad, she discovers what trust, patience, and persistence can achieve.
Told side-by-side in English and Finnish, this bilingual picture book is perfect for multilingual families, early language learners, and classrooms. The story empowers young readers to try new things, build confidence, and understand that courage doesn't mean never being afraid-it means taking a step forward even when you are.
Award-winning reviewers praise the book's relatability and emotional honesty:
What really makes this book stand out... is how relatable Lillian and her struggles are.
