review:
'Sid the Kid and the Dryer' by Lesley Choyce with illustrations by Brenda Jones is the story of a very famous hockey player and the poor dryer he practiced near.

The story is told from the perspective of a new dryer arriving at a home and being installed in a basement. The dryer soon meets young Sid who sets up a goal in the basement and practices endlessly. That kid grew up to be Sidney Crosby.

This was a really cute story with a really great lesson. I learned that if you want to see the actual dryer, it's in a museum in Nova Scotia. The illustrations are fun too. I love the dented face of the dryer with a missing button that looks like a missing tooth.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Nimbus Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
