"Lorna Schultz Nicholson' s third book featuring a young player from the Northwest Territories is a winner. And it' s crystal clear that Schultz Nicholson understands the world of hockey and has probably logged a few hours in arenas herself. More importantly, it' s obvious that she understands the nature and temperament of the superior player, the things that set him apart."Against the Boards" is warm without being sappy and absolutely satisfying. Readers aged eight to 13 will enjoy meeting Peter and facing his special challenges.".
