K-3All Aboard Reading series.
Illustrated by
Ken Call.
Opening with Wayne Gretzky's 1999 retirement, this simply written biography follows the sports great from his youth as a hockey phenomenon through his amazing career in the NHL. With an emphasis on the athlete's professional life, the book provides an adequate introduction for early readers. A combination of photos and muddy color illustrations accompanies the text.
