Janine and her story will open many eyes to things able-bodied people take for granted and will shed a bright light on sledge hockey., "[T]hese books effectively combine high-impact action scenes with sophisticated social themes."--School Library Journal, "Janine is the coolest kid in her school and the star player of her ice hockey team, until, while driving home after the league championships, she and her parents are in a horrific car accident. Janine will never user her legs again. Grieving her newfound paralysis, embarrassed to take special transportation to school, and inconvenienced by her wheelchair, she pushes everyone away, spiraling into anger and self-pity, until her best friend signs them up for a sport called sledge hockey, which can be played by paraplegics. Is her sports career over or just beginning? This story provides a vivid account of an underrepresented sport that will be new to many readers, and Sandor's experience as a sports broadcaster is evident in the text, in everything from the pucks hitting the ice to the slapping of the hockey sticks. And while the relentless pitch of Janine's rage, self-pity, and rudeness make difficult to sympathize with at times, the story creates a terrific opportunity to start a discussion about accessibility issues for people with disabilities."--Booklist, "The story creates a terrific opportunity to start a discussion about accessibility issues for people with disabilities."-- Booklist, "Contemporary issues, including bullying, disabilities, or immigration are explored in each title of this series -while also focusing on a different sport. In Free Runner, Patrick agrees to train in parkour to avoid getting charged for shoplifting, but he must learn to work with a rival to have a successful demonstration. After getting in an accident that paralyzes her from the waist down, former hockey star Janine discovers sledge hockey, a form of the sport for people of all abilities, in Stick Pick. She learns to advocate for others with disabilities by setting up a website to share her experiences. In Sliding Home, Miguel must figure out a way to help his father leave El Salvador, where he is terrorized by gang members. His baseball team coordinates a fundraiser to bring him to Canada, and self-reliant Miguel learns to accept help when he needs it. Basketball-loving Cody makes the team in Bad Shot, but must deal with constant bullying from a teammate. VERDICT Appropriate for readers at a third grade reading level, these books effectively combine high-impact action scenes with sophisticated social themes."--School Library Journal
