Just One Goal!

Author: Robert Munsch

Ciara is tired of hauling her hockey gear across town to play on the rink when there is a perfectly good frozen river in her own backyard! So she builds her own rink on the river. And with a little help from the neighbourhood, she knows that her team, the River Rink Rats, will finally win a game on their own brand new rink. With the excitement and pace of a real hockey match, the River Rink Rats play their final game on their new rink. The pressure is on; the crowd is watching; Ciara has the puck; the crowd keeps watching; the ice starts to...CRACK; Ciara keeps playing; the ice starts to drift; the crowd starts running; Ciara shoots to SCORE and . . . you can be sure that no matter how the game ends, there will be hot chocolate!--
