What is Splash about?

Claire loves copying her two big sisters, from their games to the way they ruffle her hair and call her Bear. But there is one thing she refuses to do: get into the swimming pool. Water makes her feel nervous and squirmy inside. With patience, encouragement and a brave little step, Claire begins to face her fear. Based on Paralympic swimmer Claire Cashmore’s childhood, this warm story follows her journey from avoiding the water to discovering the joy of swimming.
