Welcome to the littlest, biggest hockey arena in the entire USA, the state of Rhode Island, or as we like to call it, "The Puck's Paradise." This teeny weeny state might appear as just a tiny dot on your map, but don't be fooled! Within its small size, it holds a massive world of hockey adventures. In this frosty wonderland, the clatter of hockey sticks and the swoosh of skates on ice echoes day and night, for the kids of Rhode Island eat, sleep, and breathe hockey! Let's meet our puck-chasing hero, Zamboni Zoomer. Zamboni, or ZZ as he is fondly called, isn't really a boy, nor a girl, but a wacky, fun-loving, ice-shaving machine. ZZ spends his time gliding around the rinks of Rhode Island, making sure the ice is super smooth for our little hockey stars. The Rhode Island Rugrat Rink Rats are the zaniest bunch of munchkins you'll ever see. They can't be older than ten, but boy, do they play like they're in the big leagues! Tommy "Two-Tooth" Thompson, the goalie, has more hockey pucks in his collection than teeth in his mouth! Sarah "Swoosh" Sullivan, zips around the rink faster than a hot pizza delivery on a Saturday night. Don't even get us started on Billy "The Brick" Braddock, the stoutest, toughest defenseman you'll ever see; he could stop a meteor with his hockey stick! Life in Rhode Island may be cozy, but it's far from slow. Especially if you're a member of the Rugrat Rink Rats. With a whoosh and a cheer, they show that while Rhode Island may be small on the map, it's big on hockey spirit!
