Excellent book! Unfortunately, my kids refuse to read books I've previewed, so it is almost new after sitting on the shelf for over a year.

The main character almost dies, and is left with unusable legs. A kind monk begins teaching him to swim. He overcomes his paralysis - this story is about his journey. Very good. Kind of historic novel.
