In addition, he set seven world records at the Games.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grandma's encouragement, January 18, 2007
This book can help a youngster understand the purpose of learning a sport and pushing a little harder than usual. My grandson finally realized why he was swimming laps and has helped him be a better swimmer. He's to young to read "Under the Surface" by himself, but he will grow into that book also.
