In the sevent book in the Babymouse series, the intrepid heroine takes up ice-skating, learning that it takes hard work to be the best. When her training schedule begins to cut her off from her friends and from her beloved cupcakes, she must decide how badly she wants to win. Once again the brother-sister creative team hits the mark with humor, sweetness, and characters so genuine they can pass for real kids. Cute, smart, sassy Babymouse is fun and funny, and this book, like its predecessors, will draw reluctant readers as well as Babymouse fans. Coleman, Tina
