Once upon a time, there was a boy named Tim who loved to play in the pool in his yard. One day, he found a shiny needle lying by the side of the pool and decided to keep it safe in his bag. He then went to the telephone and called his friend to come over and play in the garden. But when they got there, they couldn't find the key to unlock the garden gate. They searched high and low and finally found it in a small box hidden under a bush. The boys spent the rest of the day playing in the garden and having fun, but Tim never forgot to keep the shiny needle safely in his bag. The end.
