Review

This lively, magazine-format book profiles 17 top-ranking NHL hockey
players. Replete with anecdotal information and quotes from the stars,
teammates, managers, and coaches, the book also includes full-color
posters of each player (with the player’s statistics on the back
side), two Record Keepers, and hockey trivia questions and answers. The
general Record Keeper contains charts that allow fans to track a
favorite team through the season, to follow the progress of individual
players, to select all-star picks and record memorable moments from
all-star games, and to record Stanley Cup playoff statistics. The
personal Record Keeper can be completed with details of the reader’s
own hockey “career.”

This interactive book will appeal to young hockey fans and players
alike. Recommended.
