In the enchanting realm of the southern United States, known to all who reside there as Mississippi, or MS for short, there's a plucky group of kids who love to defy the odds. And against all expectations, what they find most thrilling is not football, baseball, or basketball, but the icy, fast-paced sport of hockey! Now, in a place as warm as Mississippi, you might ask, "how could hockey be possible?" Well, that's where the fun begins! These kids are friends with a magical, joking snowman named Chilly McFreeze. Chilly is full of frosty fun, with a carrot for a nose and a hockey stick in his branch-like hand. Even though the sun blazes most of the year, Chilly McFreeze never melts, as he possesses a magical spell that keeps him icy all year round. These kids in MS, along with Chilly, scoff at the idea that hockey is only for the cold northern lands. Together, they play on their magical ice rink that Chilly conjures up, right in the middle of their sun-soaked Mississippi neighborhood. They zip and zoom across the ice like lightning, the clatter of their hockey sticks the only sound louder than their laughter. Every game is an adventure, with pucks flying in all directions and Chilly chasing them around, his twiggy arms flailing about comically. They play with a passion that could turn the sun cold and a joy that could light up the darkest winter night. These Mississippi kids, with their snowy companion, are a gleaming example of how you can always find a cool way to have fun, no matter where you are or what the weather is like.
