Once there was a boy named Billy who liked to play hockey. He was very good at it too.

Billy was so good, people came from all over the town to watch him play.

The people who loved to watch Billy most were his parents. Billy was thankful that they always came to his games.

As Billy got older, he kept getting even better, and some pro coaches began to notice him.

The coach told Billy he could play with the best players in the country, and that he could get a lot of money, too.

But he would have to move far away from home and his family.

Billy didn't know what to do. He really liked hockey and wanted to play with the best, but he didn't want to leave his parents behind.
