Henry Holton Takes the Ice
Sandra Bradley, illustrated by Sara Palacios
Henry grows up in a family devoted to hockey and learns to skate almost as soon as he can walk. Yet hockey brings him no pleasure. After seeing an ice-dancing performance, he is drawn to skating set to music, without the sticks, pucks, helmets, or pads he associates with hockey. His parents are uncertain at first, but Henry’s happiness on figure skates changes their minds. He keeps practicing until he can combine speed, a spin, and a high-legged finish.
