Just One Goal!
By Robert Munsch
Illustrated by Michael Martchenko
"A rink! A rink! said
Ciara. "A rink on the river would be nice." Ciara wants to build a
rink behind her house, but nobody in her family wants to help. So she
decides to build her own. Now she and her friends can play hockey whenever
they want - and Ciara is determined to win a game, no matter what!
Robert Munsch is the author of
more than 50 books for children, including such favorites as Love You
Forever, We Share Everything and Class Clown. In Hay River,
NWT, he met Ciara, who wanted a hockey rink right beside her house. Robert
lives in Guelph, Ontario. Learn more at Robert's official website.
Michael Martchenko is one of
Canada's most popular children's book illustrators and has illustrated dozens of
books, including Alligator Baby, Smelly Socks and Andrew's Loose Tooth.
He lives in Toronto, Ontario, and has a pond in his backyard - but it is too
small to make a rink on.
