Review

Barb McCutcheon has compiled an incredible collection of photographs,
mini-posters, facts, and figures in this jam-packed book about skating
superstars. Featured Canadian superstars include World Champion Elvis
Stojko, 2002 World Silver Dance Champions Shae-Lynn Bourne and Victor
Kraatz, and 2002 Olympic Gold Pairs Champions Jamie Salé and David
Pelletier. Each single skater or pair is profiled in a double-page
spread that features a short biography and career highlights on one page
and an amazing full-color action shot on the other. Skating fans of all
ages will enjoy this informative, entertaining, and educational book,
which also includes mailing addresses for the skating stars and a fact
sheet filled with “Did You Know?” questions and answers.
Recommended.
