This option accurately captures the main events and the key outcome of the story while also highlighting Stefan's interaction with Mrs. Nelson.
One afternoon, Stefan was walking home from the park. He had been playing baseball with his friends. Stefan was remembering a great catch he made when he heard a strange noise above him. He looked up and saw a cat stuck in a tree!
Stefan thought for a minute. It looked like Mrs. Nelson's cat. She would be upset if it got hurt. He tried to climb the tree, but he could not reach the lowest branch.
"Come on, kitty," Stefan called. "Come down from that tree. I'll catch you."
The cat just sat there. Stefan tried calling again, but nothing. He turned around to see if anyone was coming by, when the cat decided to jump. Before Stefan could put his arms out to catch it, the cat landed on his shoulder.
"Oh, you sweet boy!" Mrs. Nelson called. "You saved my cat! Stefan, you are my hero today!"
"It was nothing," Stefan grinned. He sure didn't feel like a hero, but why not enjoy this for a while?
