Ben And Lucy Play Pond Hockey

Author Andrew Sherburne sent me a copy of his new children's book  Ben and Lucy Play Pond Hockey . Illustrated wonderfully by Kevin Cannon, this is a charming book that should be in every kid's library. Buy The Book:  Amazon.ca  -  Chapters  -  Amazon.com   The story is about a brother and sister enjoying a great day of skating and playing hockey on frozen pond. With their boots acting as nets and the friendly animals of the forest acting as fans, Ben and Lucy and their friends play nicely together and have a lot fun. The writing is fun and easy. New readers will enjoy the rhyming verse, while those who are still a little too young will love having this book read to them as they explore the illustrations. The author was very smart to include both a boy and a girl as the lead characters, allowing boys and girls to enjoy the book equally. The illustrations and the colours really steal the show. They offer a level of interactivity that you hope...
