About the Book

At the start, we discover that our young hero is responsible for his entire family’s welfare, after his father was injured in an accident. Rather than be downcast by his father’s poor condition, Hans is emboldened and determined to turn the family’s fortunes around by competing in ice skating races. The stakes become higher as a potential but expensive cure for Hans’ stricken father is revealed by the family’s doctor.
