    Summary: 
    It was almost the first day of winter, and PK still had no skates to wear. This time, PK waited impatiently for one more week before his skates arrived in the mail. With a knock, knock, knock on the door, the mailman delivered the skates in a box. PK couldn't wait to open it. With a cut, cut, cut and a rip, rip, rip, he opened the box and was sad, sad, sad. When PK opened the box, it was empty, empty, empty. He saw no skates for him to wear. Little PK Subban is waiting for the hockey skates his mother ordered for him to come in the mail. PK loves watching hockey on TV with his father, but he can't wait for his skates to arrive so he can finally skate just like his hockey heroes! With his mother's help, PK's order for black, single blade, size 7 skates is placed. And then he waits. And waits. And every new delivery brings hilarity and dismay as PK receives skates in the wrong size, wrong colour, wrong make, or even a box that is completely empty! All the while, winter approaches and poor PK is so eager to get out on the rink! Even as he wonders if he will ever get to skate, PK's love of hockey pulls him to the sport in funny, imaginative ways. Inspired by Karl's son PK Subban, who once went through a similar saga and is now an NHL star, THE HOCKEY SKATES delivers a story about perseverance and optimism through a series of comical misfortunes all of which is brought to life by Maggie Zeng's charming illustrations!
