Review

This book is full of all kinds of graphs, charts and diagrams of hockey facts. It has an index at the start to let the reader know what categories the facts fall into and a glossary at the back to define words used. The one word it never clearly defines is infographics, which is a bit of a bummer because having that definition at the start would help readers know why the book uses all the visuals it does. And most of the visuals are great. The graphs and drawings of the hockey facts make it easy for readers of all levels to see and understand them. Another nice feature is that the text pointed out some of the drawbacks to hockey not just its pluses. This would be a great book for readers that struggle with a lot of text but still want to know facts about the sport of hockey.

Overall Book Score: very good
