Review by: Sandy James on Sep. 05, 2011 :
What a beautiful and uplifting story! Lily has to rise above losing her father and facing the possible death of her mother while trying to become a competitive ice skater. No wonder she turns to shoplifting as a compulsion! Highly recommend this story for pre-teens and teens!!
