While planning lessons to teach the "Organization" trait
for the coming year, I came across this book I'd like to
share with you to illustrate surprise endings: It's called
"That's hockey" by David Bouchard and Dean Griffiths. It is
about Etienne's cousin's recollection of being introduced
to the game of street hockey by Etienne and friends. Toward
the ending Etienne gives his cousin his hockey sweater. The
surprise comes right after: We discover that Etienne's
cousin, whom most readers will have assumed was a boy, was
actually a girl, and she is now an adult passing the
sweater on to her own daughter. A great surprise ending!
