The Bukowski siblings saved a toddler from drowning in the pool. As a reward they are allowed free entrance at the pool all summer long. They prepare big plans: Alf wants to jump off the 10m tower by summer's end. Katinka, perky and daring, wants to be able to swim 20 lanes. And little brother Robbie, who is a little different from other kids, must learn to swim. So his siblings think.

A full summer spent outside that is anything but boring.
