Nothing is impossible—not even being brave enough to ice skate again after a fall! With poetic text and dazzling illustrations, Come Catch a Dream will appeal to every child chasing their dream and to fans of The Snowy Day, Jabari Jumps, and After the Fall.
A young Black child passes an ice rink every day walking home with Momma. Last year, the rink was tricky. It looked clear and smooth, but felt rough and rude after a fall. Brrr! Ouch! Even so, the child hasn’t been able to stop thinking about that rink. The young skater is determined to do something for the first time: a spin on the ice. Because, as Momma says, nothing is impossible.
