My Review

Rating: 5 out of 5.

What a cute story! Divot & Swish learn to overcome their fears and go surfing. I like that you can apply this to everyday situations. The story is told through beautiful rhymes that flow flawlessly. Teaching our children how to overcome their fears through a gorgeous picture book is something they can relate to. It was also really pretty awesome too watch the steps you need to take to learn how to surf. Having never been to the ocean before I’ve never even seen a surf board up close so I enjoyed that aspect as well. I’m excited to see what Divot & Swish are up to next!

About The Author

Beth Brown, Ph.D., is a life-long educator on a mission to inspire families and kids to have fun, become more active and learn life lessons through sports in her children’s book series Adventures with Divot & Swish. After picking up a basketball at age 2 and swinging her first golf club at age 8, Beth was hooked on sports. Her youth sport participation paved the way for her collegiate success as a member of the University of Oklahoma basketball and conference champion women’s golf teams.

As her love for sports continued, she realized the unique opportunity sport has to impact not only physical abilities, but life skill development as well. This led Beth to earn her Ph.D. in sports psychology at the University of Kansas. Since then, she’s gone on to influence and impact thousands through her roles as a golf coach, an educational program developer at First Tee and LPGA-USGA Girls Golf, and founder and owner of the consulting agency, Team Aureus.

Beth’s first title “Adventures with Divot & Swish in Costa Rica: The Superpower of Courage” is a colorful children’s book chronicling the adventures of the title characters as they muster up the courage to surf in the ocean, and not fall off their boards.

When she isn’t writing the next adventure for Divot & Swish, Beth enjoys cheering on her beloved Sooners, riding her bike, and spending time with family, friends, and puppy Truman. She is an enrolled citizen of the Cherokee Nation and lives in Norman, Oklahoma.
