(4) 4-6 RecordBooks series. These titles cover the history of two Canadian sports legends. Gold presents the underdog story of Canada's 2002 women's ice hockey team. Prove tells of Bobby Clarke, a Manitoba boy who played for the Philadelphia Flyers; particular attention is paid to his diabetes. The books' small trim size, short chapters, and black-and-white photographs provide engaging, if slight, profiles for ice hockey fans. Review covers these RecordBooks titles: Something to Prove and Winning Gold.
