Description: Learning to Swim by Shayla Dugan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A humorous and heartfelt book about the complicated relationship between a mother, a daughter, and a grandmother. Gabrielle Malone shows up on her mothers Arizona doorstep with nothing more than a few belongings, her teenage daughter, and a car with no air conditioning (dont ask). The rest she left behind-her house, everything she owned, and her ex-husband. Her estranged mother Ida, a former Olympic swimmer and current chain smoker, needs her help after a significant health scare. Gabrielle hopes this is their relationships opportunity for a fresh start, and a new beginning for her too. Thirteen-year-old Juniper feels stranded at an old ladys house she barely knows. Shes frustrated that her mom uprooted their entire life for a strange place and misses her dad. Forced to attend the pointless last week of school, she embarrasses herself on the first day and is certain shell never make friends again. As if that werent bad enough, her mothers nightly binge-eating and cry sessions are concerning to say the least. Ida is her own woman, resenting being tethered to the oxygen hoses winding through her house. She looks darn good in the old, framed cigarette ads on her wall, holding her gold swimming medal. Heck, she still looks good. Her neighbor Morton certainly thinks so. She had one little health scare. Whats the big deal? Heart surgery. Its coming for her. She knows it but likes to pretend she doesnt. Ida is shocked to learn her own granddaughter cant swim. The one legacy she had hoped would carry on for generations is at stake. While her health certainly limits her activities, she knows she must teach the skill that brought her a lifetime of pride. Gabrielle may have laughed at the idea of her frail mother getting back into the pool, but thats exactly what Ida would do. Teach her to swim. Learning to Swim is a coming of age novel about three women in different stages of life mending relationships. Shayla Dugans debut family drama book is a delightful read full of insight, wisdom, and wit.
