Tori is staying with family near Toronto while her parents deal with troubles back home. To keep a sense of normalcy, this talented hockey player joins the Rangers -- the worst team in the league. The only girl on her team, Tori, befriends a girl on another team and their teammates resent this alliance between rivals. But when the Rangers discover Tori's talent for coaching, things start to look up for the team and for Tori. Home Ice is a compelling story about friendship and making the best of difficult circumstances. [Fry Reading Level - 3.9
