This book is one of the best hockey books I have ever read. It tells you about a boy that has never played hockey before, but is a really fast skater. He races against the fastest player on the Golden Bears hockey team and beats him. Scott is then invited to be on the team. With a lot of help and guidness, Scott becomes a very good player. In the book, there are some kids on the team that arn't very nice to Scott and that makes him feel unwanted. After about half way through the season, Scott chatches on to all the plays and becomes a good player and good friends with all the kids on the team that used to not be friends with him. I thought that this book was very fun to read, and it reminded me of when I was younger and played hockey but wasn't very good. But now I am a good player from all the practice I have had.

I think this book is almost the best book I have read, because in my opinion Matt Christopher is my favorite author. It is about kids named Scott,Skinny,and Del. Del and Skinny are hockey players,and Del is the fastest player on the team. At the lake, Scott wins in a race against Del. So Scott tries out for the team and makes it. He does not know much about hockey, and he's afraid of the puck. So he never gets it so they always lose. Find out if the other hockey players ever accept him as a member of the team. I highly recommend it, because it shows me a little about old hockey.

My son read this book and found it "deameaning" because so much of the hockey information was inaccurate. He felt that the hockey premise was deceitful and the author only used it to draw boys in, but didn't do the research to make it believable. Kids know when they're being duped!
