review:

'Crazy About Hockey' by Loris Lesnynki is a series of poems for young readers about the ice sport. The book is illustrated nicely by Gerry Rasmussen.



There are all kinds of poems related to the history of the Stanley Cup, and when players started using face masks. There are humorous poems about how worn out hockey parents get even if they aren't on the ice. The drive to win, how much fun it is, and even the fights that break out are all covered in poems. Even if you don't play hockey, it's a lot of fun.



The poems are fun, even if the meter felt a bit off on some of them, and I loved the illustrations. The book is only 32 pages long, but I enjoyed it. I wasn't sure that poems and hockey would go together, but I'm glad that I took a chance on this book.



I received a review copy of this ebook from Annick Press Ltd. and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this fun ebook.
