Description

We get in position, about to start, over the thumps of every heart- the ones on the rink, and the ones that came to watch a thrilling hockey game. Third in Loris Lesynski's popular Crazy About series, is this new collection all about hockey. In more than 40 bouncy poems, Lesynski's signature humor and style shine through as she captures the joys, thrills, and challenges of one of the most popular sports in North America. As with their previous collaborations, Crazy About Soccer! and Crazy About Basketball!, Lesysnki and Rasmussen combine wonderfully ridiculous artwork and catchy, rhythmic poems to highlight both the silly and serious side of the sport, with emphasis on training, tactics, and teamwork, but most of all, on having fun. Crazy About Hockey! is sure to appeal to enthusiastic players-and fans-of the sport everywhere. What's more, a new generation of hockey lovers will come to enjoy poetry.
