About the Author:
James Duplacey lives in Toronto.
From Publishers Weekly:
A readable and informative general guide, Hockey for Kids: Heroes, Tips, and Facts by Brian McFarlane not only covers the rules and history of the game, but tells why hockey pucks are frozen before a game (to make them faster) and what the littlest players are called (those under eight are often "mites"). The varied format includes an interview with a referee, a gallery of goalies' masks and a cartoon history of the Stanley Cup trophy. Illustrations by Bill Slavin supplement the many photographs. The hockey-obsessed can feast on player trivia with the same publisher's Hockey Superstars titles Great Goalies; Top Rookies; and Amazing Forwards, all by James Duplacey. The players are introduced with slavering titles like "The Savior" and "Muscle and Might."
