Skates, a Stick, and a Dream
by Bob Leroux
Skates, a Stick, and a Dream is all about hockey and it will transport you back to a kinder, gentler, more loving time in the Canadian countryside. Be there with Billy Campbell as the world opens up to him and inspires him with dreams of hockey glory. Growing up in the fifties and idolizing the Rocket and Gordie Howe, Billy skates faster; works harder; and practices longer than any of his friends, until the game becomes the stuff of dreams. You'll feel like you were right there with Billy, his friends and his worried parents as the story plays out—will Billy own his hockey dreams or will his hockey dreams own him? Read this book and feel better about life, people, and our potential for happiness.
