Once there was a brave boy named Tom. He liked to play by the creek in his backyard. He would use a stick to make a bridge that spanned from one side of the creek to the other.
One day, Tom wanted to use his bridge and try crossing the creek, but it was too deep. He was scared, but he was brave! He slowly made his way across, picking his steps carefully as he crossed.
Suddenly, Tom slipped and fell into the water! He was so scared, but he swam safely to the other side of the creek. His parents were so proud of him for being so brave.
Tom smiled and laughed, happy to have made it across the creek safely. From then on, he loved to use his bridge and try crossing the creek — now he knew he could do it.
