Getting in the Game

by Dawn Fitzgerald

Getting in the Game Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

I'd rather kiss Derek's padded butt than leave the ice right now with everyone thinking that it's too rough out here for a girl.

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. With humor and a feisty spirit, Joanna fights for her place both on and off the ice.

Synopsis:

With humor and a feisty spirit, Jo fights for her place both on and off the ice in this funny and feisty middle-grade novel.

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.
