Product Description
Seventh-grader Joanna Giordano wants to play ice hockey, but the only game in town is the boys' middle school team. Everyone tries to talk her out of playing--from the principal and the coach to the class bully, and even her best friend, Ben. But Jo is as determined as she is talented, and even a grandfather with Alzheimer's and a father who needs anger-management classes can't stop her from getting in the game.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC ! ! ! ! ! ! ! April 7, 2005
TWA (New Haven, CT)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got this book for my 10 and 11 year old daughters....they ABSOLUTELY LOVED it ! They kept saying "Dad, you have to read this book". I did and it is a wonderful book. As a former high school hockey player, I loved the hockey action, some of the best hockey action for middle school kids I have ever read.
As a father, the family side of the story really touched me as well.
If you have daughters, or daughters who love sports like mine, this is the BEST book I have seen for them.
The main character is one tough cookie, and her guts, spirit and determination are inspirational to all girls !
Because the hockey action is soooo good, even my 13 year old son wants to read the book now.
If you have middle age kids who love books about sports or just books about being a middle school kid ( the conversations these kids have are hilarious ), THIS BOOK IS A MUST HAVE !
