From this master picture-book creator comes a warm, funny and empowering story about overcoming fear, and the unique friendship between one little girl and her own secret, flippered companion.

Lottie and Walter features a little girl named Lottie who declares, "I'm not swimming."

Until she finds a surprising friend, who turns out to be more helpful than Lottie could ever have imagined...
