The prize of this skating contest is a pair of new skates with silver blades, which will help him to buy food and medicine for his sick father. On his way to the skating contest, he passes a leaking dyke, which is about to flood the lower-situated Netherlands. By putting his finger into the hole of the dyke, he saves a large community from drowning and becomes the hero of the Dutch city of Haarlem. Although this story sounds typically Dutch, the book was actually written by an American author, Mary Mapes Dodge. Nevertheless, this story is all about ingenuity, swift and determined action, and saving lives, all of which is needed in treating coronary artery perforations (CAPs).</p>
