    Stand Out: The True Story of Hockey Hero Ajay Baines

    Stand Out: The True Story of a Hockey Hero Ajay Baines is an absolute pleasure to read. Over the years I have been sent a lot of books to read and review. Some were fine. Some were not worth my time, but this book is now one of my favourites. So, when I was told that Ajay and Sean would be willing to join me for an episode of the Diabetes Goddess Podcast, I was thrilled! Ajay Baines is a hockey legend. He is a Calder cup winner who recently teamed up with his childhood friend and author Sean Campbell to launch an illustrated children’s book about his life. Ajay was a hockey prodigy growing up and despite being diagnosis in his teens, he went on to captain the Kamloops Blazers, score the winning goal in the Calder Cup for the Hamilton Bulldogs (The Montreal Canadian's farm team at the time), and lead some of the best hockey players of all time. Stand Out: The True Story of a Hockey Hero Ajay Baines is a fun and fascinating story created by two childhood friends. With strong themes of sportsmanship, inclusion, perseverance, and leadership. Listen now for a fun conversation with Ajay Baines and his childhood friend, Sean Campbell as we talk about diabetes, hockey, and of course...friendship!  You can purchase your copy of Stand Out: The True Story of Hockey Hero Ajay Baines on Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Chapters, and Barnes and Noble. A percentage of all book sales will be donated to the American Diabetes Association and Diabetes Canada.
