Pie Pennelli loves hockey, but oversized skates and a pesky teammate aren't his only problems. His neighbors discover a magical antique hockey game that predicts every move his team makes. When the game shows Pie frozen mid-play, he must unravel its mystery before it becomes reality. Can Pie alter his destiny on the ice, or is he doomed to follow the game's eerie predictions?
From the publisher
ICE MAGIC A strange power is at work in the rink… Pie Pennelli loves to play ice hockey, but he’s got some problems: his hand-me-down skates are too big for him, and one of his teammates is always giving him a hard time. But Pie’s troubles really begin when his next-door neighbors find an antique hockey game. They swear the game is magic and can predict every play Pie’s team will make! When the magic game shows Pie immobilized in midgame, what does it mean for Pie on the ice?
