About this title

Synopsis

Hannah wants to learn to skate and smuggles her skates with her on holiday, even though her parents told her there won't be anywhere to skate and her sisters laugh at her. But she has made a promise to herself not to take them off until she can skate, and it's a promise she is going to keep.
