Gathering courage, Riley moved closer, noticing a friendly duck family playing nearby in the water.
Riley gently put a foot in the cold water, feeling smooth pebbles tickle his feet, and started to feel a bit braver.
A cheerful frog sat on a lily pad and croaked, "You can do it, Riley! Give the swing a try!"
With encouragement from the frog, Riley decided to try the swing. As Riley swung back and forth, he felt the wind rushing by. It was thrilling and fun!
