Once upon a time there was a boy named Jack who liked to play in his backyard. One day Jack found a key under a bush and it had a note on it. It said,
“This is a magic key. It can open any door in the world, try it. From a friend”.

So Jack went to try it on a door at the King’s palace. When he got to the King’s palace, he tried it on the front door. He went into the King’s bed room and woke up the King. The King nearly had a heart attack so he called his guards to take this boy to the dungeon.

Three days later he remembered he had the magic key so he opened the door of the dungeon and the king saw Jack just going through the door and he told his guards to get him, so they did. The king asked how he got out of the dungeon. So Jack told the king how he got out of the dungeon and the king asked Jack if he could the have the magic key so jack gave the key to the king and in return the king made Jack the captain of his army and that’s the story of Jack and the magic key.
