*by M***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 23, 2015*

I think I was expecting "more" from this book as far as size or images, based on the price, which seems quite high for a slim volume about the size of a Harlequin Romance.  This is not an indictment of the author, but more of the publisher.  This is a book written mainly for children, upper elementary or middle school grades.  Warning:  "The N Word" is included, as a quotation as historical fact, which does not bother me in the context, but parents/teachers may want to be prepared.The story of Willie O'Ree, "the Jackie Robinson of professional hockey" is an important story.  O'Ree is much less well-known than Robinson, but no less important in the boundaries broken.  Hockey remains  probably the least diverse of professional sports in North America.  O'Ree's accomplishment as the first person of African decent to break the color barrier cracked a door, but unfortunately it took several years after O'Ree's career ended for others of African or Native decent to join the ranks of professional hockey players.

    Juvinile writing style
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 18, 2014*

The book description did not indicate that the book was a children's book. The writing was very juvenile. It covered the professional life of Willie O'Ree but I was anticipating a more adult focused biography.
