In this book, Pants is cut from the swim team. But Pants isn’t the kind of girl who gives up. Instead, she asks the coach if she can practice with the team so she’ll be ready for the next season. Pants practices harder than any other swimmer on the team. She is always the first in the pool at the beginning of practice and the last one out of the pool at the end of practice. The coach is so impressed with her determination that he lets Pants compete with the team in the first meet. She competes and wins!
