Publisher Description: A fun, empowering series featuring an all-girls roller derby team, the challenges they must overcome, and the unique qualities each character has that helps lead to victory. Dorothy Moore has never been outgoing. In fact, she's downright shy. So when she and her sister Sam are forced to move in with their pink-haired, hearse-driving grandma, Dorothy's not sure she can survive as the new kid in school. When she reaches into her gym bag to find her sweats replaced with a sequined spandex body suit courtesy of Grandma Sally, she's sure she won't. Dorothy just wants to fit in at school, and learning how to skate from Grandma Sally seems like the wrong way to go. But meeting new friends Jade and Gigi--who save Dorothy from super embarrassment--makes all the difference, and Dorothy finds that skating in circles might be the path to happiness and adventure. |
