Swim the Fly (2009) by Don Calame is a humorous young adult novel about three fifteen-year-old friends—Matt, Coop, and Sean—on a misguided summer quest to see a real-life naked girl. While chasing this goal, Matt also trains to swim the grueling 100-yard butterfly to impress his crush, Kelly. Amid failed plans, embarrassing mishaps, and growing self-awareness, Matt realizes that connection means more than physical attraction. The book blends comedy, awkward adolescence, and personal growth, and is the first in a trilogy. It was well-received and nominated for the 2015 Lincoln Award.
