Description
Will Nicholas be able to sift through his mess and find all of his hockey gear in time for practice?
Nicholas's room is a disaster area — he doesn't know where anything is. And he still has to get all of his hockey gear together, put it on, eat breakfast and fly out the door in time to make the first practice of the year!
Bruno St-Aubin's colourful, amusing and action-filled illustrations perfectly complement the humorous text and will delight readers of all ages. Any parent who has had to hustle a child out the door for hockey will relate to the hunt for each piece of equipment!

Where’s My Hockey Sweater?
Nicholas can’t find his hockey equipment and he’s late for the first practice of the season. Although he’s found almost everything, there’s no sign of his championship sweater.Source: The Canadian Children’s Book Centre. Canadian Children’s Book News. 2006.
