The Big Game by Gilles Tibo and Bruno St-Aubin

Notable children's writers/illustrators Gilles Tibo and Bruno St-Aubin have teamed up to give us the new hockey themed children's book The Big Game. It's a beautiful book with a nice story - kinda Robert Munsch-like.

Buy The Book: Amazon.ca - Chapters

Nicholas has his parents, his coach, the other spectators, and even his sister doling out advice on how to take on the top team in the league. But with opinions coming at them from all sides, Nicholas and his teammates can't decide who to listen to.

Between periods, Nicholas comes up with an ingenious plan to save the day — and stop every shot on goal! When he shares his winning strategy with the rest of his team, they can't help but come out on top.

Featuring Nicholas, the star of the bestselling Where's My Hockey Sweater? and The Best Goalie Ever, fans will love this new story that puts him back on the ice!
