Description
Max and Marty Mitchell love nothing more than a good, sweaty game of hockey. But off the ice Max is secretly writing a book featuring a farm boy who makes it to the big leagues. Max's book is set in the 1930s during the opening of Maple Leaf Gardens, and The Hockey Book takes readers into the rough-and-tumble early days of the game. Brian McFarlane blends a detailed knowledge of the sport with an exciting time-travel storyline in this fun entry in the popular series.
