I give Wingman On Ice five stars because it was really interesting and really good. Wingman On Ice is my favorite book because I love hockey and Matt Christopher is my favorite sports author. This book is about a kid named Tod and Tod loves hockey,and his mom and dad buy him a hockey stick.Then when Tod tried his hockey stick he did really bad. So Tod put his brand new hockey stick in his closet and did not play with it until he thought he deserved it.Then the last game he made a really good pass then the guy who passed it to scored to win the championship game. Then Tod thought he deserved his hockey stick after that game.If you like hockey I think you should read this book.-Dr.Pepper

For our book reivew I read the book "Wingman On Ice," by Matt Christoper. It's about a boy named Todd Baker who gets a brand new hockey stick for christmas.Todd doesn't think he deserves the stick because of the way he had been playing,so he puts it in his closet. He practices for a long time, but still does not think he deserves the stick. This story takes place in present time. It was the last day of the season at Mana rink, Todd's game had really improved, now he finally thinks he deserves the stick, but does not have it with him. If you want to know what happens next, you will have to read the exciting book, "Wingaman On Ice." If I had to rate this book from a scale of one to ten, I would give this book an eleven it is so good!

We enjoyed reading this story as it addresses a key value: that good things must be earned. At times, however, we felt the boy was a bit too hard on himself. Overall we enjoyed the story alot and if you love hockey it is a good way to learn more about how the game is played.
Good story if your seven year old boy is into hockey.

The book kept the interest of my son from start to finish. The book also provided accurate information on some of the skills used in hockey. My son is looking forward to the day he will be able to read it on his own.
