One night David went in the bathroom to wash his hands before supper.  Then he didn't see any soap so he had to get some in the counter, but the counter was too high so he went downstairs to get the chair from the kitchen and went back upstairs then he put the chair on the bathroom floor and got on it. 

He could now reach the counter and opened it and took some soap and started to wash his hands.  Then he thought he heard a noise in the sink.  A little man came out of the sink and David looked very closely at the little man and the little man said,

"What are you doing?". 

David answered in a scared voice.  The little man said to David,

"Don't be afraid David.  I'm here to help you out by washing your hands."

and David said,

"I know how to wash my hands." 

The little man said

"You are wrong.  You don't know how to wash your hands." 

Then the little man pulled out a little card from his pocket and said

"This is my card." 

David read the card and the little man name was on the card.  It said John.  David asked John if he could show him the right way to wash his hands.  John said yes and pulled out a big truck and John hopped in and said all aboard. David got in the truck and it started spinning and David and John were flying off in space.  The truck took them to another planet where he learned a lot about washing his hands. 

When he got home he said goodbye to John.  John left in the truck and David went downstairs where his mother and father were waiting for him to come down and eat his supper.  After that night David never forgot how to wash his hands.
