Joey Moss first became well-known because of his work with the NHL Edmonton
Oilers team. Whether he was singing “O Canada” on a jumbotron screen at a
hockey game or dancing on a charity fashion show runway, Joey loved making
people feel good. But his impact and influence started before he joined the
Oilers.
Joey was born with Down syndrome at a time when many children like him were
institutionalized. Instead Joey lived at home, surrounded by his family who were
determined that he should receive the same opportunities as others. From this ISBN: 9781534111691 • $25.20/DISC: $20.16
