Everybody in Little Joe's family can swim, except him. So while they play in the pool, he just sits and watches. Then Joe sees a lost little frog hop across the garden and jump into the water. Joe's family start splashing, shouting and screaming as they try to catch the frightened little frog but it is Joe who gently lifts him to safety and sets him free. And watching the frog has given Joe the courage to climb into the pool himself.

How do you feel?
