Product Description
In this enduring father-son classic, now available from Scholastic, 10-year-old Paul has just joined the hockey team and loves to practice every day with his dad.
When Dad gets a promotion and can no longer play with him, Paul has to make do with watching the exciting Canada vs. Soviet Union series with him at night.
Paralleling the game-by-game, play-by-play, goal-by-goal excitement, Paul and his father rally through the series, until finally the tie-breaking final game arrives. It's a day of delight, revealing the unbelievable and the unexpected — a story that will set readers on the edge of their seats.

Fun for both young and old,
By
This review is from: The Greatest Goal (Paperback)
I do not remember the '72 series first hand, but heard stories from those that do. This book captures the spirit of a nation during that incredible series. It is told through the eyes of a young hockey player who looked up to and admired Paul Henderson. It recounts the events of those amazing 8 games and especially Paul Henderson's winning goal. Wonderfully illustrated and written, this will be treasured by hockey fans both old and young.
