Biography #1: This book is fantastic! Most people have heard of Wayne Gretzky, but they don't know very much about him. I already knew some information about him, but this book really helped me get to know his back story and who he was on the ice, and off the ice. It makes sense why people call him "The Great One".
I enjoy watching Hockey, and liked reading about Wayne Gretzky
This concise biography of one of hockey's greatest players was well done. I am not a super hockey fan, but this life story of Wayne Gretzky provided windows of insights into the life and career of this record-setting superstar of the ice rink.
Young hockey fans will enjoy this book that is part of Scholastic's Who is series. Even though this is a chapter book, it didn't feel like a chapter book. Chapters are short and there are illustrations and fact boxes (pages) to break up the text and reading.
I really knew nothing about Wayne Gretzky before reading this book. I like the who was series, but this one I really enjoyed. This series is great for a entry level overview of famous people throughout history. I could help but find myself at the very last hockey game that Gretzky played, this is a fun read.
Rated 5 starsAges 12+
i liked this book because it was a really short read. This book is about Wayne Gretzky grew up and what he did to become so successful in his NHL career and it showed what led up to his career as an NHL superstar
I don't love sports, but I do love knowing the stories behind the people and this one was great. Wayne Gretzky was a hard worker and it was fun to learn about him.
Life story of the Canadian hockey player. Loved the game since he was a little boy. All he wanted to do was play and practice. Came from a large, close family. A gentleman on the ice. Cared for all. Not someone whom you would think of as a hockey player or a superstar. Gave some hockey history also.Kids in lower and upper el liked it.
This guy was amazing. Crazy amazing.
I would recommend this book to people who love hockey.I like this book because Wayne Gretzky is one of my favorite hockey player to play.
This is a very informative book if you need to do a report on him. It was very interesting to hear about his life. This book series has been my favorite for a long time and I still love to read these books.
What a commitment this man has to the sport he loves. Playing on a ten year old's team when he's five. Leaving home to play as a teenager. I love his over attitude and especially when he was traded making sure there was a still a job for someone in the locker room he very much cared about. Worth the read. elementary and up
When Wayne was a little boy he had always dreamed of being an NHL player. He always loved ice hockey that was his passion. Wayne lives in Brantford,Canada hockey has always been played in Canada,Canada invented hockey so you can now see why he plays hockey. In Canada it’s very cold there so in Wayne’s backyard he made a ice rink to skate around in.When Wayne was playing in a game the fans would boo Wayne because of the TOI for each game. Wayne couldn’t really have a social life because of how fo...
4.5🌟A wonderful chronicle of Gretzky's life and career. My eight year old had no problem reading this beginner chapter book. It highlighted moments in The Great Ones's life perfectly with a happy ending. For more of my book content check out instagram.com/bookalong
I like the books in this series for young readers. My only criticism is that the text is often "interrupted" by information that is related to the subject, but not a firm part of the narrative. For example, while the author is relating interesting facts of Gretzky's young life on pages 9-22, pages 12-13 provide information about Canadian Provinces and territories. The text returns to the narrative on page 14, only to be interrupted again on page 20 with a page of information about James Creighto...
I liked who is Wayne Gretzky I would recormend it to you if had to do a project about Wayne Gretzky. I liked the book because it tolled me a lot of things I didn't know. This book is not very long so if you're not a fast reader and you don't know much about Wayne Gretzky this probaly is the book for you.
Read along with audible
