Chichi loves the beach but fears the water. When the big kids tease him for wearing swimmies, he stays on the sand. With help from his jellyfish buddy Jelly and some new friends, Chichi learns that real bravery means staying safe. Even the bully joins the fun once he sees that friends lift each other up. A sunny tale about courage, kindness, and why swimmies are cool—perfect for every pool and beach season
