Frankie's love and flair for ice-skating means she's dedicated to practising at her local ice-rink every morning, teaching herself the hottest moves and the toughest spins.

But while the school boasts world-class tuition and promises sporting success, its super-privileged pupils are so cool they're practically sub-zero.

A gripping new boarding school series with added ice, "Skate School" combines ambition, competition, friendship and fun. This compulsively cool read is sure to inspire budding sports stars everywhere - just in time for the Winter Olympics!

    The work examines the alternative life-views, role - models and 'possibilities of becoming' offered by the texts. It also explains why they have assumed such an importance (as Orwell pointed out in regards the English boys' school literature in the lives of boys and men) in the lives of so many adult women. Dr. Humphrey also discusses the effect of war, shortages, sport/games, imperial decline and evolving notions of love and passion in these texts. This is the one of the few studies that provides a wide ranging discussion on so many aspects of this subject and it speaks to the power and possibility of this often dismissed, predictable and risible literature as no other research work has done.
