Once upon a time there was a little boy called Jack. He was very independent and wanted to explore the world. One day, he decided to go out on his own. He walked to the gate near his house and opened it.
He stepped out and was really excited. He stumbled on the grass, but picked himself up quickly. He was walking along when he saw a tree. He wanted to climb on it and see what was on top.
Jack climbed the tree and got to the top. He was so happy that he had been able to do it all by himself. He looked around and saw lots of things he hadn't seen before. He carefully climbed down and walked back to the gate near his house.
He knew he'd have to open the gate to get back in. But instead of being scared, he tried to open the gate by himself. After a few tries, he was able to open it and walk back into his house. 
Jack was feeling very proud of himself. He had been so independent and had done it all by himself!
