Kids books with skiing themes?

[wa-loaf]

I don't know of any. Does anyone know of one or two?

Matt Christopher, child author, has lots of sports themed books. 2 titles currently on our shelf are "Snowboard Maverick" and "Snowboard Showdown". (Our son snowboards). But there are also baseball, soccer, etc., so I'm sure he's done skiing ones as well.

What age are you looking for? The above books belong to my 12 year old (but I know we've had them for several years). My 8 year old comes home often from the school library with "how to" books on what ever he is into that week. This week we currently have Kayaking and Boating. And I know he had a skiing one at some point.

Any library with a childrens' section would be able to help you out.

I have soon to be 2 and 5 year olds. Don't need a how to, just wondering what's out there since google searches haven't come up with much. I'll check out that author.

I'll look this one up too.

Two I have for my youngin.

Of course, thanks to my oldest watching snowboard pr0n all the time, he refers to skiing as, 'snowboard!'. :-D I think we've lost one....

I loved Matt Christopher books when I was younger. I don't remember any skiing/snowboarding ones, but I did read baseball/etc. books from him.

We've got a couple other books from Else Besko. That's a definite pick-up.

Those look pretty cool too.

I looked his stuff up. Snowboarding, no skiing and it's targeted for older kids. I'll pass on those for now.
