I found this book in the chs library

The reason why the books is called the summit series ’72 is because in the summit series ’72 Canada had eight games that put Canada on top of the hockey world. These games took place in Moscow and a little in Europe. The team Canada hockey players were Brad Park, Paul Henderson, Winger j.p. parise, tony esopsito and ken Dryden there coach was named Sinden. The Canadians at first was the world’s greatest hockey team ever but all of Canada knew that already so they didn’t pay attention to them instead they watched the NHL (Nation Hockey League) while Canada was busy with the NHL. The Russian hockey team was being assembled soon when the Russian team was ready the time came when Russia was to face Canada but no Canadian was caring after the the game the people all over Canada were surprised that Canada lost. So Canada was no long top of the hockey world. Soon Canadians gathered NHL players and formed a hockey team. The team players did not know each other so when they faced Russia they lost and became 4^TH place Canadians hated their own hockey team. But then the team practiced together and then when the summit series began the where playing against Russia. They played against them many times but in the final game they won and Canada was back on top.

Christian perspective

The thing I saw in this book is that the Canadian hockey team had perseverance and they will win them and faith they will win even if their own country goes against them. I recommend this book to any Christian because it teaches a lot of things

My thoughts

I recommend this book to people who love hockey or love the Canadian hockey team I think it’s a good because it’s easy to read and its is clear and the book has a good story line.
