You don't want to put it down!, November 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Chance of a Lifetime (Silver Blades) (Paperback)
This is the final book of a three-book mini-series. The end of every chapter leaves you hungry for more. It is about two girls trying to rising to the top of the world of figure skating. In Chance of a Lifetime, Tori and Jill are competing in the Olympics. Tori is skating with a serious muscle diease against all odds, and trying to be strong when all she recieves is pity. The other girl, Jill, finds out how differently alternates are treated at the Oympics than skaters competing. This book is sad at some points, funny at others, and really a thrilling book overall. It's a must for girls who love ice-skating.

About two skaters who have followed their dreams., April 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Chance of a Lifetime (Silver Blades) (Paperback)
This book is about two skaters who have followed their dreams to skate at the Olympics. Melissa Lowell uses her imagination to create two skaters going to the Olympics instead of Kwan and Lipinski. This book is one of a three-book miniseries and of all of them I think it's the best! I'd give this book 5 stars, the first one for the drawing on the cover, the second one for the creativity of the book, third for the surprises, fourth for the adventure, and fifth for the humor. At the end there is a big surprise! Tori, who has a disease that can have her end up in a wheel chair, won the gold and Jill is in third. It was a great book. I'd recommend it for ages 7-12. I hope you enjoy the book!

Lowell does excellent work in this book capturing life at the Olympics, mixed in with family problems, and how athlete's aspire to greatness despite all the odds. It is superb. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

This review is from: Chance of a Lifetime (Silver Blades) (Paperback)
This is the best silver blades book! I love how it all turned out! I rate this one a 10! It's worth every second I spent reading it! I love the Olympic standings and it's great how the story takes place at the real site of the Olympics, Nagano Japan! You'll love reading how it all turns out for Tori!

A truly touching story., May 11, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Chance of a Lifetime (Silver Blades) (Paperback)
Tori must have felt wonderful after winning the Olympics. This book was sad and happy. I wished that Tori could've somehow worked her strength past this awful disease and still have been able to skate. A beautiful heart- wrenching story.
