One day, Tom was walking down the street. He saw a tall tree and decided to try and reach the top of it. He stretched as high as he could, but he still couldn't reach it. 
Just as he was about to give up, he spotted a regular card on the sidewalk. He picked it up and looked at it. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him. 
"Hey there," said a friendly voice. Tom turned around to see a old man with a wide smile.
"Would you like to try again?" he asked.
Tom nodded eagerly.
The old man took the card, which had a special handle on one side. He held the card up to the top of the tree and with one big stretching motion, he was able to reach the top of the tree with the card. 
Tom was amazed and thanked the man for his help. 
The old man laughed, "It's no problem! Anytime you need help, just give me a shout!" 
Tom waved goodbye as the old man walked down the street, leaving Tom to enjoy the view from the top of the tree.
