Locate Lizzie -- with another fifty links to lead you to some other fabulous
Lizzies:
The Best Figure Skater in the Whole Wide World
"All Lizzy wanted was to be the best figure skater in the whole wide
world. When the World Championships came on TV, she watched every
minute. Whatever the skaters did, Lizzy did the same. She twirled,
she leaped, she spun around the living room floor. She lunged past
the couch, and she lutzed around the lamp. It was the best feeling
Lizzy had ever, ever had. . . ." A book for young readers by
Canadian writer Linda Bailey.

where the sun seldom shone, the fresh wind seldom blew, and the white
snow of winter was turned at once to black mud. One bare room was
Lizzie's home . . ."
