- Reading
- Read alongside a conversation about trying a new activity without dismissing earlier skills. Pause to ask whose expectations Mia is carrying, and revisit whether competitive success is presented as her only measure of progress.
- Themes
- Finding an independent path: Mia wants to pursue figure skating instead of continuing to play hockey in the shadow of her older brothers. The book?s stance on this remains unclear.
- Guidance and pressure: A new coach gently pushes Mia while her brothers pull her towards their shared sporting world. The book?s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- Consider whether the pressure around Mia feels supportive, demanding or both.
