Lyrically told true story of the teacher who coached Hawaiian swimmers to Olympic glory.When the children of workers on a 1930s Maui sugar plantation were chased away from playing in the nearby irrigation ditches, local science teacher Soichi Sakamoto had an idea. He would take responsibility for the children and train them to swim. Using his science background, Sakamoto developed a strict practice regime for the kids, honing their skills and building their strength and endurance. They formed a team and began to dominate events, first nationally and then internationally --- until they made it all the way to Olympic gold!Told in simple rhyme, Sakamoto's story will inspire athletes, coaches --- and everyone who believes impossible dreams can come true.
