Dear Mr. MacGregor:
My name is Daniel and I live in Winnipeg
Manitoba. I am in grade 6 and I attend Centennial School. I read three
of your books in the Screech Owls series, which includes: The Night They
Stole the Stanley Cup, The Screech Owls' Northern Adventure, and Murder
at Hockey Camp.
I am writing to you because my class and I are doing a project on our
favorite author. I chose you because you write excellent books and I
love hockey. You should be proud of yourself and I hope that one day, if
you are not too busy, you could come to Winnipeg and write a book here.
The Screech Owls' Northern Adventure
I found this book to be funny, scary and exciting. The funny part was
when Nish was in the airplane with blankets over him and the flight was
very bumpy and rough. When the plane landed everyone was so quiet he
thought they were all dead. There was a scary part in this book when
Nish fell through the ice and thought he was going to drown. His team
pulled through and saved him. There was also an exciting part when Nish,
Rachel, Jesse, Liz and Rachel's grandfather were playing hockey
together, and Travis pulled a really cool and awesome move on the
grandfather.
The part of the book that I would change is when Nish was disrespectful
to the people of Waskaganish, James Bay and to their culture. Those
people opened up their hearts and homes to him and his team. If he
didn't like their food or anything else he didn't have to tell them and
hurt their feelings.
I would write a book about a kid who could turn himself into a hockey
puck. Then he could shoot himself anywhere he wanted on the ice. If the
other team took a shot at his team's net then they would score on
themselves. This book is very good because, yes it's about hockey, and
you never know what can happen next.
