Figure skating is Kaitlins passion, but she lands on thin ice after a meltdown in this funny, touching story. Because when you fall down, you have to pick yourself upeven if its in front of judges and a crowd.Kaitlin has always dreamed of being a champion figure skater, and shes given up a lot to pursue her passion. But after she has a totally uncharacteristic tantrum at a major competition, shes dropped by both her coach and her prestigious skating club. When no other club will have her, shes forced to join the ridiculed and run-down Fallton Club, jokingly referred to as the Fall Down Club. At first Kaitlin thinks this is a complete disaster, but after meeting some of the other skatersincluding a boy who happens to have the most perfect hair shes ever seenshe realizes it might not actually be so bad. Yet learning a whole new program right before regionals is a huge challenge, and when she realizes that all the other area skaters target Fallton for pranks, she begins to wonder if joining the Fall Down Club has any upside.
