The Hockey Sweater

Summary: A True Canadian Classic
Review: All Canadians can identify with the character in this book, be they Montreal, Toronto, Detroit or other hockey teams fans. Everybody who grew up standing in hockey rinks, playing on the ice or dreaming about getting back on has gone through what the main character has. This is a true example of Canadian culture and can also be applied to other sports.

Review: The Hockey Sweater is such a nice little childrens book that can melt the heart of any hockey fan no matter how old. The book is great for young people, the illustrations are adorable and there is some hockey history laid in the book as well. It is a nice look back on a semi-forgotten time and it is nice to introduce old-school hockey to the youngsters. I am going to read this book to my nephew once he is old enough and if that is not recommendation enough to get your hands on this book yourself, then I am lost for words.

Summary: blah ending
Review: what i thought would be a great book for my 2 hockey players ( ages 6 + 9), we were all dissapointed in the ending. the story builds as the boy is the only one with a different sweater from everyone else. Instead of something great happening to him, it ends with him in church praying that moths eat the sweater. period , thats the end. not very inspirational for your kids. want a great hockey book? get "The Magical Hockey Stick" its great!
