This is a scenario we see in books periodically - a school cuts funding to the arts and clubs in order to maintain the budget for sports. Our heroines, after a chance encounter with professional wrestling recognize it's potential: it's artistic, creative, dramatic, and most importantly, athletic. The set-up strains the willing suspension of disbelief and the characters are fairly one-note. Even so, this book is a fun read. It emphasizes communication, honesty, and safety about all else. It empowers young readers and encourages creative problem solving.
