Oliver Learns to Swim

by Julie Krantz

Overview

Tip and Oliver are best friends--until a rift occurs when Oliver joins the Hicksville Cycle and Sail Club, and Tip does not. Not because he doesn't want to--because he can't. Only dogs with pedigrees can join the Club. Still, Tip is the one Oliver turns to when he needs help passing the Club's required swimming test. Tip agrees to teach Oliver how to swim. Only problem is Oliver is a long, lanky bag of bones who's never set foot in water before. That doesn't stop Tip from trying, though, without much success. See what happens when Tip's exhaustion leads to a crisis that requires Oliver to step up to the plate. Will he risk his life to save Tip's? Or will his inability to swim lead to disastrous consequences?
