About the Book

Fourteen-year-old Madeline Snow is the star goalie and captain of her girls rep hockey team. When her father moves the family to a small town, she feels like she's losing a lot. Maddie is unhappier than ever. Soon she discovers she's made the town's only Bantam team, but since they have a skilled goalie in Connor Spencer, Maddie wonders if she will get to play. When Connor dies in a car accident, Maddie is overwhelmed with sadness and guilt. But Maddie has become part of the community, and her friends help her to find the focus she needs to fill the empty net.

Review :
Starr creates a world that is easy to enter, and keeps the reader engaged through strong descriptions to support visualizing, clues, and cliffhangers to encourage making predictions and asking questions. Great for sports enthusiasts, struggling readers, or as a read aloud.--Canadian Teacher "It takes the reader into the net with Maddie and shows how she does what she does without sacrificing Maddie the person."--Resource Links Empty Net is a story about coping with change -- from small changes to big changes to life-shattering changes, and there is a lesson to be learned in each occurrence that Maddie goes through. The overarching themes of change and loss provide a lot of material for use in discussion in a classroom or assignment.--CM: Canadian Review of Materials
