A Goal In Sight

Aiden Walsh had no idea what he was in for when he receives community service for bullying another hockey player. He must be a companion for Eric McLean, a blind boy. Aiden doesn’t know what to do, especially when he discovers Eric plays for the Calgary Seeing Ice Dogs, a blind hockey team and he expects Aiden to play too.

A Goal In Sight has been endorsed by Bob Nicholson, President of The Canadian Hockey Association, as an excellent resource book on bullying, on and off the ice. This book will be listed as a resource for teachers, parents and children with www.bullying.org.
