PreS-Gr 1-When Kate receives new skates for her birthday, her younger sister inherits the old pair. Jen moves immediately (and without any practice) from "I do not know how to skate," to getting laced up faster than Kate, and moving onto the ice where she "does not need any help." Kate can't wait to skate, but immediately discovers that the new blades are more difficult to handle than her old ones, and she slips and wobbles. A week later, the girls return to the rink; when a big kid knocks into Jen, Kate goes to her rescue and is aided by a skating star, who agrees to give Kate lessons. |
