A Good Read - Book Review

I picked up "Hockey the NHL Way The Basics" (Sean Rossiter and Paul Carson), hoping to help one or more of my hockey kids to improve his game.  The book covers - as the title says "The Basics" of hockey, and while I didn't find anything new to help me - an adult with some experience watching kids at hockey games and practices, I found that my 2 youngest kids are enjoying and may get something from the book.  The book is filled with colour photos of techniques, and includes NHL players comments and photos. 

"Hockey the NHL Way" includes sections for fitness, skating, puck control, passing, goaltending, defensive skills and equipment.  While my kids may have learned everything in hockey camp or practice already, they could definitely use refreshers regarding passing and puck control, and I have spotted them practicing puck control spontaneously in the driveway already.  A good book for a motivated 9 to 12 year old.  Not so much for my teenagers who know everything already....  For the cover price of $12.95, it's a deal.  At Amazon it's currently $10.36.
