Yet, the obstacles to this dream feel insurmountable: Inori's already 'too old' (she's 11); she's always had trouble at school; and, worst of all, her older sister's skating dreams ended in failure, so Inori's mother is dead set against putting Inori through it, too. Still, the rink is the only place Inori can be herself, and she's out on the ice when a fateful meeting takes place"--Back cover.
