In The Game
Meet six kids a lot like you. Except . . . Benny, Jenny, Karl, Starlight, DJ and Mo got zapped in an evil plot gone wrong—and they became the super-est team the world has ever seen. Lucky thing, because this time they are sucked into a virtual reality, with a computer program firing the worst bad guys at them in a bid to learn all the Hockey Super Six’s best tricks for stopping evil in its tracks. But then the Six and all the evilest evil-doers are tossed out of the game and into real life. Can the Six round them up using their hockey superpowers? It’s a race against time and the whole universe is at stake in this fifth action-packed, laugh-a-minute book in the Hockey Super Six series. With short, action-packed chapters and highly illustrated pages, these books provide just the kind of story today’s sports- and humour-loving kids want.
