When people asked what sport I liked best, I'd say spectator. I enjoyed watching my friends run down the track or jump high to shoot hoops and wondered what it must be like. I'm glad to see a picture book embrace the challenges and fun of sports. I'm adding Lucy Tries Hockey to my reading list. Thank you for a great review.
