Summary
A young boy doesn't want to go to bed. The hockey game is on! "What if I can't fall asleep??" the boy says. "Don't worry," says his dad. "You will." After his parents have tucked him in and turned out… the light, he shines a flashlight on his prized hockey possessions around his room: the posters of his favourite players, the pennant for his favourite team, the puck. Then he decides to listen to the game on his radio, which he places under his pillow. With the familiar drone of the announcer's voice for company, the boy drifts off to sleep… only to find himself at the centre of the action, playing for his favourite team! Grades K-3. 2017.
