Books like Angelina Ice Skates

I still remember reading Angelina Ice Skates when I first got the book back when I was about five or six. It was my favourite book as a child, and I remember reading it over and over again, being absolutely enamoured by it. It was this book that actually prompt me to learn how to ice skate as a child, and it’s something I have loved ever since then, and I still partake in once a month now.It was heavily this story that has inspired me from then until now, a good fifteen years of my life, only in something as small as ice skating, but this is a story that still holds a special place in my heart. I wouldn’t have a part of who I am today, an ice skater, still training to be an ice hockey player, if it has never been for Angelina Ice Skates.This is a really wonderful story, almost a classic for my generation, from the Angelina Ballerina series, and if you have children, I would definitely recommend this story for them. Curl up with them and read it, it’s wonderful. I remember many times when my own Mother would read it to me, we would read it three or four times, and she seemed to enjoy every single reading of it. A book for both children and adults to enjoy, Holabird did an absolutely amazing job with this. I’d very happily sit and read it all again numerous times now. An absolute joy, and a book I owe a part of myself to.
