WILL BERNARD EVER GET OVER HIS NERVES AND SHOW
EVERYONE WHAT HE CAN DO?
Bernard has been the swimming pool manager for a long time,
and practices his diving at night when no one else is around.
When his swimming pool holds a contest for high-diving hounds
from around the world, he hopes that he can work up enough
courage to compete.
This lovely story from the author of The Wobbly Waitress is a
heart-warming tale about trying new things, even when we might
need a bit of help to find the courage to do it.
* Gives readers the positive message that all you need is a little bit
of courage and self-confidence and you can do anything
* A distinct and humerous rhyming text about the difficulties of
putting yourself out there and trying something new
* Lisa Stickley's fun and colourful illustrations bring her wonderful
characters to life
* Lisa Stickley was nominated for the Kate Greenaway Children's
Book Award 2018
