Book Overview
Anthony's hockey team has battled its way to the championship, but his opponents keep using racist insults to throw him off his game. Even when he brings his best, some players try to tell him that he doesn't belong. Can Anthony overcome the everyday micro-aggressions, stereotyping, and racism he encounters as a Black hockey player and help his team win a championship? Written from the child's perspective, this story gives readers an inside look at the challenges and joys of becoming a winner in the sport of youth hockey.
Author, Anthony Walsh, molds together into one story the experiences he had from his youth hockey days through the exhilarating experience of being on a high school state championship-winning team. He wrote Hockey is for Everybody to be a resource and an easy icebreaker into a tough and often emotional conversation that every parent should have with their child about race.
