SLAPSHOTS - THE STARS FROM MARS

 THE STARS FROM MARS - GORDON CORMAN

Gordan Korman - SLAPSHOTS 1 The Stars From Mars

A classic Cinderella sports story. These never get old. 

This book reminds me of the Mighty Ducks movie. A ragtag team of hockey players that inherit a strange coach and a star player who used to play the rival team.

They start out rough, but with some help and determination they get better. Of course it all comes down to the final game against the best team in the league. Will they work out all their problems and win?

This is by far the best hockey book I've read for kids. There are all kinds of players, so easy to relate to at least someone even if you are not a hockey player. There is a lot of actual hockey action, which seems to be missing from other 'hockey' books. And, the story moves along at a good pace to keep you reading...it might be predictable, but there are some twists along the way.

If you want a copy, or you want the entire series you can get it on Amazon - https://amzn.to/2GwB1DM
