Twelve Kinds of Ice by Ellen Bryan Obed illustrated by Barbara McClintock*

A lovely, lovely little book!
A family anticipates the weather turning cold enough so they can flood an area in their backyard for an ice skating rink. 
Each mini chapter describes either a different kind of ice or an important aspect of the ice skating/hockey experience.
The writing is beautiful and captivating.  I read this aloud to my nine year old in almost one sitting.
*Highly recommend (especially during winter!).
-Borrowed from the library (but I want to buy this one since it is so well written and evokes such pictures/feelings).
