Description
Owen and Holly learn that, with friends and hockey, any Christmas can be bright and anyplace can feel like home.
When Owen and Holly have to move from Saskatchewan to Nova Scotia just before Christmas, they miss their friends — and hockey. But their dad has a surprise up his sleeve. On Christmas Eve, the secret is revealed: an outdoor hockey rink he has made nearby — and it’s filled with new friends.
A paperback edition of a favourite Canadian holiday story.
