"Swim Team" by Johnnie Christmas is a graphic novel about a girl named Bree who just moved to Florida. Bree is very thrilled for the first day at her new school, Enith Brigitha Middle School, but joined the only elective that fits her schedule, Swim 101. She detests swimming and even worse, everyone else can swim except her. She hates that she can't swim, and her neighbor, Ms. Etta, begins to give her swimming lessons. Surprisingly, she makes the team and she gets better each day. See what consequences she faces. Overall, this book is fun and an easy read. I didn't like graphic novels, but "Swim Team" changed my mind.

Most of the chapters contained basic information except for one about the "Hidden agendas" of people, which can really show you why nasty people act the way they do. As well as the final chapter about interviewing skills- which is really helpful as I've never had to do one before.
