They have awesome skills and they assure Rudy that their team will win the medal. Rudy is torn. He knows that he should stay loyal to his friends but winning the medal also means a lot to him. What should Rudy do?
Full of energy and with stylish illustrations that capture the scene this story poses a familiar dilemma for very young readers.

Read the full description
When Rudy and his friends discover that the Skate Stars competition has come to their hometown they can't wait to enter and show off their skills. But then some older wolf boys spot Rudy practising his tricks and ask him to enter with them instead and drop Femi and Edie, saying that he's much more likely to win he does.
Rudy's always dreamed of being on top of the podium with a gold medal around his neck. But could he really do that to his friends? How much is Rudy willing to win, and is he prepared for what might he lose. . . ?
Howlingly cool illustrations and an irresistible character finding his way in the world make Rudy and the Skate Stars the ideal choice for those looking to bridge the gap between picture books and independent reading.
