With thirty teams in the NHL, We Are the Goalies showcases the starting netminder of each club and provides young fans with exciting photos, a detailed history, and an introduction to each of these star players. Along with full color photos, young and eager fans will enjoy reading about their goalie heroes. This colorful book introduces the top goalies in the National Hockey League. Though small, the book is attractively designed, with heavy, glossy pages and a solid, bold background on each spread. Each left-hand page features a clear color photo of the player during a game. The facing page includes a small fact box with the goalie’s current team, jersey number, catching hand, height, weight, date of birth, birthplace, and free agent statue or draft team, year, and rank. In a larger box, two paragraphs of text comment on the player’s style and strengths, as well as summing up his accomplishments. A glossary clarifies terms such as butterfly style of goaltending and Bill Ranford Trophy. While all the entries are quite similar in content and tone, young fans will probably enjoy this focused presentation of the best goalies in the NHL today. A companion volume, Jordan’s We Are the Goal Scorers, is also available. Grades 4-7. --Carolyn Phelan Christopher Jordan is an avid sports fan.
