For nearly a century, the Toronto Maple Leafs have stood as one of the most popular hockey franchises in the NHL. With M Is for Maple Leafs, children across North America will discover the alphabet while being introduced to interesting Leaf history. From people (such as Mats Sundin and Johnny Bower) to hockey terminology (line change and face-off) and places and things (dressing room, Air Canada Centre, puck), the world of hockey is depicted in this fun and lively picture book. Featuring rhyming text from author Mike Ulmer and striking illustrations from Melanie Rose, this book captures the spirit of "Canada's game." M Is for Maple Leafs is destined to become a classic that will be handed down from generation to generation.

PRAISE FOR Z is for Zamboni:

"The brilliant illustrations are eye catching and elegant." - Hockey Book Reviews

"Whether spilling over a double page spread or confined to a single page, Rose's full-colour illustrations are filled with exuberant action and invite repeated "readings" to absorb their details and emotions." - Highly Recommended, CM Magazine
