Very cute little book, but unfortunately, very poorly written. Generally, alphabet books such as this one employ techniques that make the content easier for developing minds to digest, including elements of rhyme and rhythm. While there are a few instances of repeating sounds, (for example - T is for tripping - using a stick to cause a stumble) there is very little else that would make this book a quality learning tool. At the time of this writing, my daughter is less than two months old, so I will have plenty of time to rewrite it to provide her with content that will benefit her. If you have absolutely no creative ability whatsoever, and are only going to buy one alphabet book for your kid, this is NOT an appropriate choice. However, if you love hockey like I do, and can buy it cheap like I did, do it. Seeing your baby's eyes wide open, staring at you while you tell her all about Wayne Gretzky, is just way too cool of an opportunity to pass up. And guys, your wife will love you for it, which is a good thing during the time surrounding your baby's birth. She goes from being fat, to being in a LOT of pain, to being hormonally imbalanced - so anything that works in your favor is a good thing. Trust me on this one.Read full review
We bought this book because my son likes Zambonis and hockey. Z is for Zamboni takes you through the alphabet using hockey references for everything but Z, which of course is for Zamboni. My three year old loves this book. He has most of the pages memorized so he "appears" to be reading it. My only complaint is that it used the Zamboni once. It would have been nice to have seen the diferent parts of the Zamboni used as well; B is for Brush... W is for Water Tank... etc.
Great book for anyone learning to skate. Who loves watching hockey games. 7 year old loves the Zamboni.

My daughter loved this book when little. She played on the 2011 National Champion HoneyBaked 16U team this year, and when a former coach recently had his first child, she said we have to get Z Is For Zamboni for them.
