Reviews

Praise for Carey Price

“An inspiring story, especially for hockey fans and not just for reluctant teen readers.”

— Kirkus Reviews

“The book is aimed at middle-grade readers, ages 12+, and has a decidedly different approach to telling his remarkable story. For one, author Catherine Rondina chose to really spotlight Price’s Indigenous background … The pocketbook from Lorimer’s RecordBooks series crams a lot into its 150 pages, from Price’s early days in the remote Anahim Lake, B.C., to leading Canada to a gold medal at the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi.”

— Society of International Hockey Research

“This slim, pocket-size biography manages to convey an awful lot of information through engaging, brief chapters and breezy vocabulary. Readers will come away with an overview of acclaimed goalie Carey Price’s hockey career to date.”

— Booklist

Praise for P.K. Subban

“Readers will definitely come away with a sense that they have met and know both P. K. the superstar hockey player and P. K. the man.”

— CM: Review of Materials

“An easy read even for those who are not hockey fans.”

— Kirkus Reviews

Praise for Breaking Through

“[Breaking Through is] a book that encompasses the spirit of female athleticism in Canada, and it contains a number of stories that are important to tell.”

— CM: Review of Materials
