Pre-school - Grade 2 / Ages 5-7.
Review by Dave Jenkinson
In this very simple picture book, two young boys, the un-named narrator and his friend Iain, play street hockey every day after school, and play in the occasional Saturday afternoon pick-up game with older kids at an outdoor rink. The quite straightforward text always appears on the right-hand pages, and is usually just a phrase or a single sentence.
Recommended as an additional purchase.
