<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Little Leo Loves Hockey is a story based loosely on a conversation the author/illustrator Bonnie Lemaire had the pleasure of having with Hockey Hall of Famer, Leo Boivin himself, in his hometown of Prescott, Ontario.</p><p>This charming story takes place in the 1940's where Leo grew up along the beautiful St. Lawrence River. It is about his love for hockey as a young boy and his perseverance to do just about anything to get out there on the pond and share a day of hockey with his buddies!</p><p>Author and award winning Illustrator, Bonnie Lemaire, also grew up in the Prescott area. It is not the first time these two have teamed up to create something inspirational to hockey players of all ages. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Finally a children's book about Hockey! This book should be owned by every parent or grandparents that have a future or little hockey player! The illustrations are magnificent & the story is of an actual HOF player Leo Boivin who played for several original 6 teams based on his memories of growing up playing Hockey on the St.Lawrence River in town called Prescott. In a time where you'd borrow your dads skates & slide a boot inside to make them fit for a game of shinny. </p><p><br></p><p>What an excellent book about Hockey Hall of Fame - Leo Boivin. Excellent gift for your little hockey player. </p><p><br></p><p>This is a cute story of a boy who just loves hockey, his passion, enjoyment, skill all are well documented in a fun rhyming way. The illustration is superb...... </p><p><br></p><p> I am in love with this book! I am a Canadian living abroad and my son, Leo, is getting to learn the sport. I am even from the Saint Lawrence River area, so this book resonates a lot for me. </p><br>
