Deep Water By William O. Douglas

The story deep water is about how a simple fear can change you in a big way. The book seemed to be very inspiring. a boy who was dared to go under deep water almost dies and was scared for almost the rest of his life. Till he had hired a swimming instructor, who perfected each little detail of swimming day by day.

Someone who can over come his fear is always a bit inspiring. but overcoming a fear of death caused by water is just daring. many people have died of drowning and when near death you don't want to do what caused it. Once in your life you half to overcome a fear, and that's what the main character did in this story. the fear of the event was driving him crazy, and it was time to do something

After his event he avoids water for a very long time. As life goes on he starts to get sick of hiding from it. the salutation to his problem is an instructor. When the instructor teaches him, he teaches one simple thing, like waving you feet for weeks. At last he was perfected.

Although perfection or not he is afraid of chocking and drowning again. and there was only one way of finding out, putting his ability's to the test. The trial he decided was swimming to an island in a lake, and as he goes he realizes hes not afraid, and becomes a grate swimmer. if he could do that maybe everyone who is afraid of water can, that's the inspiration, and a very good one too.
