The Ultimate Collection of Quick Hockey Facts for Kids: Bite-Sized Facts, Amazing Stories & Fun Trivia Quizzes Young Fans

Does Your Kid Know Every Player's Stats but Won't Touch a "Real" Book?Turns out the fix isn't a shorter book. It's a completely different kind of book: one you can open to any page and still walk away with something wild to tell at dinner.You've tried the sports biographies. The ones with sixteen chapters and a full page before anything actually happens. Your kid reads two pages, puts it down, and goes back to watching highlights on your phone.Here's the thing: it was never about reading level. It's about format. Give a hockey-obsessed 8-year-old a "story" and they wander off. Give them one true fact that sounds fake, the kind that gets shouted across the dinner table, and suddenly they're the one holding the book, reading you three more.That's the whole idea behind this collection. Not a book you finish. A book you raid.In this book, your young hockey fan will find: - The real (and slightly gross) reason NHL pucks get frozen before every game. Plus the legend about what the very first puck was supposedly made of.- Why Detroit Red Wings fans have been hurling octopuses onto the ice since 1952 (there's actual math behind the madness)- The true story of a Hall of Fame goalie who won four Stanley Cups while talking to his goalposts like teammates- Where the term "hat trick" actually comes from (hint: it has nothing to do with hockey)- 15 sections on records, rivalries, goalies, coaches, pop culture and more. Jump to any page, there's no wrong order.- An "Overtime Challenge" quiz after every section, with answers printed upside-down so nobody can peek early- ...and much, much moreYour kid doesn't need to know hockey trivia already to enjoy it. That's the whole point of a book built for five minutes at a time, not an hour of sitting still.Give the hockey kid in your life a book they'll actually pick up on their own. Perfect for road trips, rainy afternoons, or that one cousin who "already knows everything" about hockey.
