Publisher's Synopsis
Every corner of Canada has heard the hockey echo of "He shoots, he scores!" But few girls if any dared to dream she would hear "She shoots, she scores!" One brave nine year-old girl was determined to change that. With a hastily conceived disguise and the stalwart support of her mother, Abby not only played the game that was forbidden to her and other girls, she played it better than most of the boys on the ice. Abby Hoffman - Attempting The Absurd is a true story about a little girl's determination to achieve that forbidden dream. The cloak-and-dagger story of her triumph on the ice, on the track and in life will be cheered by girls, boys and their parents alike.
