His mother Beryl sat proudly and watched last night as Christopher was given the ‘Child of Courage’ award by his favorite TV star.
Christopher was in the car with 35 mother, father, sister Rosie, 10, and brother Mac,7, when his father drove into a big stone.
The family’s car fell down a hill into the canal, and 36 with its wheels up.
Christopher, then 12, swam 37 a broken window and got out into the fresh air. Then he saw the rest of his family were 38 in the car—in the water.
He took a big breath and swam back to 39 first Mac, and then Rosie.
Christopher, from England, said: “ I didn’t think about it and only knew I had to get them out. I was 40 , but it was all happening so fast, and I didn’t really think about the 41 .”
Christophermoved Mac to a safe place and then 42 back to get non-swimmer Rosie, who was under the cold, unclear water, in the car.
