John was very restless. He wanted to play hockey, like his brother. But he was too small. His brother was big and strong, and could tie up his own hockey stick with thick strings. John tried to do it too, but he couldn't tie the strings tight enough.
John was frustrated and threw the string to the ground. He looked around, desperately looking for a way to play. Suddenly, he saw a rope lying on the ground. He took it and hurried to his brother. He asked if he could tie the rope around his stick. His brother smiled and agreed.
John felt happy. He tried to tie the rope around the stick, but it was too difficult for him. No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't do it. His brother helped him, and eventually the stick was tied.
John was so excited. He and his brother both had hockey sticks now. Finally, he could play hockey with his brother. The two of them ran to the playground and started playing. John was so happy!
