I ice skate too. I have been ice skating since I was 8 or 9 years old, and believe me I know what it feels like to be at the rink 4 days a week!! This book has really inspired me to keep up my goals for ice skating.
Great book! About 2 of the best skaters ever!

I am a normal 12 year old girl,so I think that this is a great book that shows what the the life of a young famous skater is really like.
Shows rewards when one overcomes challenges.

If you ever think about giving up before you achieve your goal, then you should read this because this book shows value of keeping at it, despite many hardships and difficulties one encounters. Both of these young girls can be real inspirations for others, and not necessarily girls. Do read this book!
AWESOME
