It's Hard to Swim (Ellie the Wienerdog series) Life's Little Lessons by Ellie the Wienerdog - Lesson #2 by K.J. Hales

Ellie is back again and this book is even cuter than the last one.  This time, they are taking her down to the lake to swim.  Ellie has a really good imagination...

Open Door Press and Net Galley allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).  It's been published, so you can grab a copy now.

Ellie purple with orange accents.  She has huge eyes.  And she's afraid of the water.  She imagines all kinds of hazards and dangers.  She thinks dogs should just stay with their feet planted on the ground.  After all, no one trains fish to sit!

Ellie's people put her in a safety vest before they put her in the water.  She finds out it can be FUN to swim.  She also finds out you can do more than you think you can, you just have to try.  That's a life skill all of us can use.

I'd buy this book just for the illustrations but the story line is good, too.  You can go far in life, just try!
