Greta’s eyes lit up as she spotted a group of girls from her grade. “May I go play with them?” she asked her parents. They agreed, and she jumped gleefully into the water. Graham shuddered at the thought of swimming. Instead, he sprawled out on a chair and read a book beneath a shady umbrella.

“Mine, too,” Graham agreed.
