Title: How to breathe underwater
Description: "Kate thinks she has everything all figured out.  She's a champion swimmer with a bright future ahead of her.  But when Kate's perfect world comes crashing down in one instant, she's forced to leave the swim team she's been a part of her whole life. As she tries to settle into a new home and a new school, she meets Michael, the cute boy who lives across the hall.  Michael wants to learn how to swim, and he'll teach Kate how to salsa dance in exchange.  Soon, Kate's nights are filled with visits to the rooftop pool and ice cream dates in the hallway with Michael.  There's only one problem: Michael has a girlfriend.  And Kate isn't sure that swimming, which her father pushed her to be the best at, is something that actually makes her happy.  As the pressures of her new life start to build, can Kate keep her head above water?"  Front flap.
