Trust on Thin Ice by Jake Maddox

Trust on Thin Ice by Jake Maddox

Mina is a talented figure skater, but she's looking forward to trying a new challenge - pairs skating! Mina has second thoughts, though, when she starts practising with Luke, a shy boy whom she doesn’t know well. Can the pair overcome their trust issues and become a successful pairs skating team? Combining exciting sports stories and a diiverse cast of characters with a dynamic graphic novel format, this fast-paced tale of sportsmanship and teamwork comes to life in a full-colour graphic novel. Supportive back matter, including comprehension questions, writing prompts and non-fiction sports info, helps young readers and sports enthusiasts step up their game.

Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers. Bere Muniz is a mexican artist from Monterrey. She has been drawing and coloring comics since 2009. Her work can be found on several children books in her country, where she lives with her beloved partner in crime, a shaggy dog and four cats. Lelo Alves was born in Patos, a small town in the state of Paraíba, Brazil. While he was a teenager, he moved to the city of João Pessoa. Since Lelo was small, he never stopped drawing. The influence of alternative comics was his source of inspiration to enter in the field, with the support of friends and the help of co-workers. Currently Lelo has works published in Brazil, Portugal, and the United States. He also works as an illustrator of children’s books and game designer, as well as graphic design, which is his academic background.
