Summary: Learning To Swim During difficult Times
Comment: This book was absolutely incredible! I am so glad that I read this! After I got done reading this book, my whole family wanted to read it! They did and agreed with me and said that it was so depressing about how she was manipulated at such a young age. Although it was all written in poems, and was a short book, I had to read it slow so I could comprehend everything that was going on in those moments. I just wanted to keep reading after every page. Her details were so accurate and true. Her story was so intriguing, and I couldn't believe what happened to her. She definitely told her story well.Like I said, I loved this book. In a way though, I was glad it ended. Because she learned so much that summer, and I was happy to know that. Ann Turner described every detail so precisely and explained her story so well. I would recommend it to everyone!

Summary: Learning to Swim
Comment: Learning to Swim, by Anne Turner, was my favorite book that I read for the Rosewater competition. A biography, Ann's chilling tale is hard to take in at first. The things she went through were things that would be hard for any teen to mentally survive. I love how Ann divided the book into three parts. Sailing, sinking, and swimming. They were like the stages she went through, as she grew up in that one summer. The title's metaphor is great. "Learning to Swim" is how Ann finally learned to overcome her fear. She learned that the threats were not going to keep her hurt bottled inside her, and she would have to speak out. She finally swam when she told her mother about the entire ordeal. I loved this book and I recommend it to teenagers everywhere.

Comment: This book is highly reccomended to many girls of the age of 12-16. This book reveiws a very bad thing that you should never keep in. A young Girl named Annie who i predict is no yonger than 8. She wants her summer to be a memorable summer, she wants to learn how to swim with her cousins. She learns to swim but everytime now she swims she will think of the horrable thing that happened her ober the summer she learned to swim.
