Daydream A Novel [electronic resource] : by Grace, Hannah.aut; cloudLibrary;
The third in the New York Times bestselling Maple Hills series follows fan-favorite Henry and a bookish fellow student who come up with a plan to help them both overcome their respective challenges in a difficult year. When his procrastination lands him in a difficult class with his least favorite professor, Henry Turner knows he’s going to have to work extra hard to survive his junior year of college. And now with his new title of captain for the hockey team—which he didn’t even want—Henry absolutely cannot fail. Enter Halle Jacobs, a fellow junior who finds herself befriended by Henry when he accidentally crashes her book club. Halle may not have the romantic pursuits of her favorite fictional leads, but she’s an academic superstar, and as soon as she hears about Henry’s problems with his class reading material, she offers to help. Too bad being a private tutor isn’t exactly ideal given her own studies, job, book club, and the novel she’s trying to write. But new experiences are the key to beating her writer’s block, and Henry’s promising to be the one to give them to her. They just need to stick to their rule book. Oh, and not fall in love.

Alice & Gert / by Becker, Helaine.; Seiferling, Dena.;
"As in the traditional ant and grasshopper fable, winter is coming and Alice the ant is industriously stocking up nuts and seeds to see her through the harsh season. Meanwhile, Gert the grasshopper is carefree, singing songs, performing plays, and creating art out of the flowers and leaves around her. At first Alice disapproves, but as she gathers her stores, she finds herself humming Gert's tunes and is awestruck by the beauty of the grasshopper's creations. But the leaves start to fall and Alice wonders what will become of Gert over the winter, attempting to chide the grasshopper into productive action. Gert, however, dances on until one morning her nest is rimed with frost and she's down to one dry maple key for breakfast. Shivering and not knowing what to do, she tells Alice she fears she'll starve over the winter. Alice reminds Gert of her lack of foresight, singing and dancing through summer rather than planning ahead. But Alice has developed a soft spot for Gert over the summer-the grasshopper's works of art lightened her load, and she wants to extend kindness to her new friend in appreciation and acknowledgment of a different kind of work and effort that is also important to everyday life: artistic labour. Alice reveals that she's collected enough food to last the winter-for both of them. With its soft palette and gorgeous graphite drawings, Alice and Gert is a tribute to true friendship, kindness, hard work, and the importance and value of art, taking place in a natural setting that is both homey and a touch fantastical"--Provided by publisher.LSC

Burke's law : a life in hockey / by Burke, Brian,1955-author.; Brunt, Stephen,author.;
The gruffest man in hockey opens up about the challenges, the feuds, and the tragedies he's fought through. Brian Burke is one of the biggest hockey personalities--no, personalities full-stop--in the hockey media landscape. His brashness makes him a magnet for attention, and he does nothing to shy away from it. Most famous for advocating "pugnacity, truculence, testosterone, and belligerence" during his tenure at the helm of the Maple Leafs, Burke has lived and breathed hockey his whole life. He has been a player, an agent, a league executive, a Stanley Cup-winning GM, an Olympic GM, and a media analyst. He has worked with Pat Quinn, Gary Bettman, and an array of future Hall of Fame players. No one knows the game better, and no one commands more attention when they open up about it. But there is more to Brian Burke than hockey. He is a graduate of Harvard Law, and an accomplished businessman with hard-earned lessons that come from highly-scrutinized decisions made at the helm of multi-million-dollar companies. Not only does he know the game, but he has expertise to share in the business and management principles arenas as well. And despite his gruff persona, he is also a father with a story to tell. He lost his youngest son in a car accident, and has grappled with that grief. Many Canadians knew Burke's name already, because he became one of the country's most outspoken gay-rights advocates when his son Brendan came out in 2009. Brian Burke has learned many truths the hard way, and is courageous and insightful enough to share them with readers for the first time.

Undrafted : hockey, family, and what it takes to be a pro / by Kypreos, Nick,1966-author.; Lefko, Perry,author.;
As a child growing up in Toronto, Nick Kypreos lived for hockey and dreamed of following in his idols' footsteps to play in the NHL. Hockey was an important part of the Kypreos household. It was largely through the game that his immigrant Greek parents acclimatized to their new lives in Canada, and from a young age "Kyper" proved he was more than good enough to move through the ranks. But he was never a top prospect-he didn't even attend the NHL draft when he became eligible. And yet, through dedication and constant improvement, he made it to the show. Kypreos built a career on his tireless work ethic and made a name for himself for always having a positive influence on team morale. A medium-weight fighter, he squared off with the league's toughest players, including Chris Simon, Joey Kocur, Tony Twist, and Scott Stevens-anything to give his team an edge. Ultimately, he was brought to the New York Rangers to help them win the Stanley Cup in 1994-their first in fifty-four years-with the legendary Mark Messier. And then he got to live his other dream: playing for his hometown team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. When a concussion forced him to retire early, it changed his life. But the lessons he'd learned on the ice over eight seasons helped him build a new career as a top hockey analyst and personality for Sportsnet. For twenty seasons he provided unique insight on the evolving game, and a player's perspective on the biggest discussions of the day. Revealing, fun, and brutally honest, Undrafted shows the challenges of being a pro player. It's a story of the resilience it takes to prove yourself every night, and how the right attitude can lead to the greatest success, not only in the arena, but in life.
