This is a story about the Thrivesons, a common, ordinary, family.
Dad William, 48, truck driver, big and strong, slight belly, brown hair, with a brown beard.
Mom Lisa, 32, cycling instructor, thin and slender, with dark black hair.
Brother Olly, 10, very nice, even to his sister.
Sister Andi, 8, has her name commonly mistaken for a boy's name, but is nice and clever
One summer day, William got a strange letter saying 'Congratulations! You have won a free family swimming pool for you and your family!' What was strange was that the letter wasn't signed by anyone, but it was impressive, so William called his family. and told them about it.
that day, the pool appeared in their backyard.
the family were very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very excited.
They changed into their swimsuits, and spent the afternoon in the pool.
Later they floated in the pool, staring at the clouds.
However, little did they know was that their new pool was actually 'The Family Swimming Pool of Aquatic Transformation', an experimental pool guaranteed to turn anyone who swam in it's waters into...
FISH!
Sometimes, the Thrivesons wondered what it'd be like to BE fish, swimming around carefree in the water; no jobs, no money worries, no clothing to wear, just being free to swim in the ocean to their hearts' content.
