A 6-year-old Seminole County, Florida boy may have the best story in show-and-tell on Monday.

Brenden Williams made a life-saving phone call when he couldn't get his father to wake up.

His father suffers from diabetes and had low blood sugar.

After the call, the father was certainly glad his girlfriend taught the young boy what to do in an emergency.

· Operator: Have you ever dialed 911 before?
· Brenden: No.
· Operator: No? This is your first time?
· Brenden: Yes.
· Operator: Did you dial 911 because your daddy was in trouble?
· Brenden: Yes.

Brenden said he just wanted his dad to wake up so they could play a game.
