There is a generation of Canadians who will never forget Paul Henderson’s series winning goal in the 1972 Summit Series. While Henderson’s goal, which was named the “goal of the century,” is unforgettable, there is a generation of hockey fans and Canadians who didn’t have a chance to experience or learn about this unique Canadian moment.

This children’s book is based on the true story of Paul Henderson, the Greatest Jersey Ever (Paul Henderson’s Team Canada ’72 Jersey), and the greatest moment in Canadian sports history (the game 8 series winning goal scored by Paul Henderson in the 1972 Summit Series).

This is an uplifting and inspiring story of pure heart and determination. It is a comeback story that is truly unbelievable. We are looking to create a timeless story, read by all ages while bringing generations together: parents and children, and grandparents and grandchildren. On September 28, 1972 a whole nation came together.

This book has been created to pass on the legacy of the greatest moment in Canadian sports history to a new generation.
