Review: On the Ice with Tara Lipinski is a great book. The author is Matt Christopher. He is a great writer. When I read this book I felt like I was there watching Tara skate on the ice. It was a great book and still is. So, whoever is looking for a sports book, this is the one for you to read!

Summary: Great skater, average biography
Review: Tara Lipinski is a wonderful skater, but this biography does not begin to do her justice. It is filled with errors that could have been easily corrected by either having an editor who knows something about skating or watching a videotape of the performances in question. Even the photos are nothing special. For a better book about Tara's career, try her autobiography, Triumph on Ice. Skip this one.

Review: When tara was two she saw her first olympics on tv but at the age of four she being to take tiny tot roller skating lessons. Tara was very good also at roller hockey . When tara was six she being ice skating and tara loved it. Tara also stayed with roller skating but soon had to quit and her family moved to texes where they gave her a pony named Moonray . Tara loved her pony and rode him but he cost to much and her parents soon gave him up. When Tara was eleven she started going to competitons and won a lot she beated stars like Michelle Kwan. And in 1998 in winter Tara, fifteen, won the gold medal at the Olympics . Taras brilliant smile was always lighting up the ice rink.
