Illustrated by
Sara Palacios.
Everyone in Henry Holton's family is "hockey mad," including his parents, uncle, sister, twenty-three cousins, and his six-time MVP grandmother. Henry also loves the ice but surprises the family when he wants figure skates instead. Mixed-media illustrations with delicate lines warmly capture the icy-thaw of a family's gradual, but loving, acceptance of "one fine ice dancer!" Glossary of hockey terms appended.
