PHOTO: Capitals' Eric Fehr wrote an adorable anti-bullying kid's book titled 'The Bulliest Dozer'

Washington Capitals fans are well aware of forward Eric Fehr's versatility. The checking forward can score at a solid clip, he's big enough to contribute physically in a fourth-line role, and he can play center or on the wing. 

He can also write a mean children's book about a mean anthropomorphic bulldozer who is kind of mean. Or as NHL.com Capitals beat writer Adam Vingan described it:

Here's a photo of the book via Russian Machine Never Breaks:

The backwards hat is classic. It's like the bulldozer version of T.J. Detweiller from the Recess animated series.

Here's the synopsis of the children's book found at Google Books:

When his parents move to new jobs in the area, a little bulldozer joins Ms Crane’s School for Young Machines. The other students welcome him but, when he finds that everyone is good at ice skating and he isn’t! He is embarrassed. Not only that but his parents are too busy to notice his problems. He decides to become a bully to get attention. However, when a crisis happens and the Holiday on Ice Concert is in danger of being ruined, he discovers that he has his own talents. He saves the day and realizes that being a bully is never a good thing.

As you might expect the beaking from Fehr's teammates has already begun in earnest:

So Fehr is getting bullied for writing an anti-bullying children's book? The ironing is delicious (and the iron is probably a character in the story about a child bulldozer).
