Description

Up for Air by Laurie Morrison is a heartwarming story about finding self-worth through competitive swimming. Thirteen-year-old Annabelle struggles in school but excels in the pool, becoming an integral part of her middle school swim team. As she joins the high school team over the summer, Annabelle's life changes dramatically. She gains new friends and catches the attention of a high school boy who treats her with newfound respect. However, after a prank goes wrong, Annabelle loses her confidence and can't swim, leaving her to question who she is without her one true talent. This story realistically captures the challenges of middle school, including complicated friendships and first love, as Annabelle navigates her way through these complex emotions and ultimately discovers where she belongs.
