PAIRS ON ICE

Jamie’s coach was thinking that Jamie, twelve, had a better chance of achieving her Olympic dream as a pairs skater than as a single. So Jamie agrees to skate with Matt, even if she has to grit her teeth every time they practice. If Matt weren’t enough to deal with, Jamie’s divorced father tells her he is getting married again. A new stepmother and six-year-old brother are just what she doesn’t need. Will her life ever be smooth skating again?

Pairs on Ice is more than a book about skating. Tweens will identify with the many conflicts Jamie faces on and off the ice in this fast-paced novel.
