The Winning Edge — Nola Thacker

Lauren dreams of becoming a skating star. But it's more than just a dream...

Coach Perry is taking on a new skating student, and now Lauren will be sharing ice time with Courtney Reeves. Courtney is the same age as Lauren, but the two skaters could not be more different. At first, Lauren feels sorry for Courtney because she is so far from home and has to live with her aunt while she trains with Coach Perry. But Courtney is so unfriendly -- a true ice princess! As Courtney and Lauren prepare for their first skating exhibition, Lauren starts to question her ability. Courtney is an excellent skater. Can Lauren live up to her title of a champion?
