The Man with the Heart of a Boy

In a small town, there lived a man named Mr. Jasper. He was tall and had a big smile. The children loved him. They would call out, "Mr. Jasper! Can we play?" He would laugh and say, "Of course! Let’s have some fun!"

Every Saturday, Mr. Jasper brought his box of toys to the park. It was filled with colorful balls, kites, and even a small puppet named Charlie. The children gathered around, their eyes sparkling with excitement. Mr. Jasper said, "Let’s see who can fly a kite the highest!"

As the kites danced in the sky, laughter filled the air. Mr. Jasper ran with the kids, his heart full of joy. He felt just like a boy himself. After flying kites, he took out Charlie the puppet and began to tell a funny story. The kids giggled and clapped their hands.

One day, a new girl named Lily joined them. She looked shy and stood away from the group. Mr. Jasper noticed her and gently walked over. "Hi there, I’m Mr. Jasper! Want to play?" he asked with a warm smile.

One rainy day, the children gathered under a big tree. They were sad because they couldn’t play outside. Mr. Jasper said, "No worries! We can tell stories! I have a magical treasure map!" They all pressed closer, eager to hear the tale.

The townsfolk often said, "He has the heart of a boy!" Mr. Jasper smiled, knowing that love makes the heart young. Every child was a treasure, and he cherished each one. One evening, as the sun set, Mr. Jasper looked at the kids. "Thank you for being my friends! Remember, no matter how old you get, keep your heart young and full of love!"
