Once again, thank you to the wonderful Lori at Fitzhenry & Whiteside for sending me this great little book!
TITLE: Hockey Talk
AUTHOR: John Goldner and Ted Heeley
GENRE: Children
RATING: 4 Stars
Being a proud Montrealer and quite use to all things hockey! This book was an absolute joy to read and enjoy! Hockey Talk is all about hockey - from mini biographies on some of the well known broadcasters to all things you might want to know about hockey.
This book is aimed at a younger audience so is constructed in a manner that will keep their attention. Loaded with cute pictures and caricatures - its a fun, fun trip through the world of hockey. For those who are into fun facts and stats, you will also love this book and, of course, mention of MY team is frequently done as Montreal practically invented the sport of hockey - although we won't be seeing any Stanley Cups this year!
This book is a joy and great for all the young sports lover.

Just as soon as they have the official sign up for the read-a-thon, I will put my reading list on my blog. I'll let you know. And I just recounted and sorry it is 7 books not 10 I ordered from your blog.
OOps! heeheehee, 9, its 9 books. Guess I just don't know how to count.
My son would have loved this when he was a kid - he would come home hoarse from hockey games! (You should link this to Booking Mama's Kid Konnection feature.
