New Year's Fun

Ivy has been loving Katharine Holabird's Angelina Ice Skates.  The illustrations by Helen Craig are the best part.  They seem almost Victorian in their beauty.  This particular book in the Angelina series is about how Angelina is preparing for an Ice Dance for New Year's with her best mouse friends - Alice, Flora, Felicity, and, of course, her little cousin Henry.  However, whenever they practice... Spike and Sammy, two big mouse boys from school, cause trouble.  How will she stop these boys from ruining the show?  With a little advice from mom and some creativity!
