This book was nice, I liked her determination and willingness to swim. I feel Tobi could have faced some challenges while swimming. For example, if she lost a swimming competition and tries to give up, but her parents motivate her to keep on trying after her failed attempt. She listens to her parents and tries again, and she comes first place or second which further motivates her to try again till she wins the competition.

This book teaches children how to swim. Learning to swim builds confidence and independence in children. It empowers them to navigate water environments comfortably and enjoy water-related activities without fear. Swimming provides a sense of achievement and allows children to explore and enjoy water safely, whether at the beach, pool, or other aquatic settings. Developing these skills early in life can lead to a lifelong love of swimming and water activities.

"Tobi learns to swim" is a very interesting story about how Tobi, after getting a swimming costume on her birthday, learnt how to swim. The book conveys the excitement children feel when learning new things. This makes it easy for kids to relate to, and the illustrations are very captivating.

This book talks about Tobi a pre- schooler who got a new swim suit as her birthday gift. She and her parents go to a swimming pool to swim. I really love this book because it teaches children even teenagers like me how to swim. With the help of this book, I have started learning how to swim.
