Beschreibung
Are you a fan of the game of ice hockey?

Do you see the beauty that comes from the intensity that takes place on the ice?

Are you in need of an inspirational story or two?
As a sport, ice hockey is an intense battle waged by two teams over a sheet of rock-hard ice, but the battles and stories that happen off the ice can be just as intense. Because of that intensity, the people involved in the game often have to overcome obstacles that have nothing to do with the puck or the game itself. When that happens to a player with the world watching, those onlookers are inspired by the grit and tenacity the players demonstrate.
Hockey players truly are special people. They have a set of skills unique to their game, and not all of them are physical. Mentally, hockey players have to be sharp and resilient. When those skills are put on display, crowds will marvel and cheer. But when tragedy strikes, those same skills prove to the world that moving forward is possible no matter what happens.

Inspirational Hockey Stories for Young Readers contains 12 real-life stories involving hockey players and families from decades' worth of hockey history. You'll find players grappling with a range of situations, from cancer to disabilities and more, and their reactions are sure to inspire you to contend with whatever is causing you pain in your life.

Some of the stories in this book include:

Gordie Howe's resilient career.
An emotional shutout from Craig Anderson.
Jim Kyte's trailblazing career.
How the first unofficial NHL All-Star Game came to be.

This book is sure to motivate and inspire any hockey fan, from the young skater playing with friends up to the adult league champion. This book may also help the reader understand how a hockey player can find a way to move forward, even when their dreams are seemingly stripped away from them.
Maybe there's a hockey player in your life who needs a boost in their life. Maybe they're struggling with their health, or there's conflict around them that they are unable to handle on their own. Or, maybe, you just know a hockey player who loves the history of the game and wants to read about 12 amazing players.

Either way, this book is bound to bring a smile, or maybe even a few tears of happiness, to anyone who knows what it takes to play the game of hockey. It is sure to inspire hockey players and fill their hearts with pride that they play the toughest sport ever created.
