Description We know it as the "butterfly stroke" but to Elizabeth Moncello growing up on Australia's Gabo Island in the 1930s it was the "dolphin." So reveals Alice Mary Cooper, who with highly expressive storytelling brings us the unofficial history of how Liz invented the butterfly/dolphin with the help of fish, penguins, and other aquatic friends. Waves is about a lonely girl finding the courage to do something astonishing. It is funny, moving, and equally absorbing for children and adults.
