"Perry the baby polar bear swims his first stroke towards independence, and finds his way back to mommy again. While Perry's mother can swim, Perry has not yet learned how to do so, and his fear of the water keeps him on the polar ice while his mother, who is in the water, demonstrates how he should use his feet as paddles.

His thumping causes the ice beneath him to crack, and Perry then floats off on a most unstable chunk of ice. Finding himself getting further and further away from his mother, a desperate Perry throws himself into the water. Lo and behold, not only does Perry actually begin to swim, but he finds that he enjoys doing so and even asks to continue swimming when his mother suggests that they get out of the water and rest."--
