Exploring the many ways to skate

Hailey’s first fall on the ice makes her question whether skating is for her. As she learns about figure skating, hockey, and ringette, the story opens up the sport as a range of possibilities rather than a single destination. Her growing curiosity connects the book’s ice-skating subject to its themes of trying new things, persistence, and finding a path that feels like one’s own. The description also highlights family and the experience of falling and getting back up, framing discovery as part of learning a sport.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children interested in ice skating or sports
  • Families looking for a picture-book story about trying something new
  • Children curious about different kinds of skating

Book overview

Hailey dreams of becoming an ice skater, but the first time she gets on the ice, she falls. Worried, Hailey wonders if she has a future as a skater. Before her next class, she starts to pay attention to what kind of skater she could be. . .and sees that the world of ice skating is bigger than she ever imagined!

By watching and learning about different types of skating-from figure skating to hockey and ringette-Hailey learns not just about skating, but about the courage to try new things, and the joy of falling. . .and getting back up.

When I Become an Ice Skater is a heartwarming story of discovery, family, and finding your path. Blending personal passion with professional insight, this book is more than just a story. It's an invitation into the magical, challenging, and rewarding world of skating.
