Once upon a time, there lived a triangle named Tri. Tri was always curious about the other shapes and wanted to know more about them. One day, Tri came across a book about geometric shapes and got really excited. The book said that triangles were one of the most basic shapes. Tri was feeling proud of itself until it read that another shape, square, was even more basic. Tri felt sad and left the book behind.

As Tri was wandering around, it saw a comet falling from the sky. Tri ran towards the comet to see what was happening. To Tri's surprise, the comet was actually a magical geometric shape changer. The changer asked Tri if it wanted to become another shape. Tri thought for a moment and then said, "Yes! I want to be a square."

The changer used its magic and turned Tri into a square. Tri was so happy to finally be a square, but then it realized that being a square wasn't as fun as it thought it would be. Tri missed being able to have three sides and decided to use the changer's magic to go back to being a triangle.

From then on, Tri learned to love being a triangle and appreciated all the different shapes for the unique things they could do. The end.

2. What was the magical thing that changed Tri's shape?
3. How did Tri feel about being a square?
4. Why did Tri go back to being a triangle?
5. What did Tri learn from this experience?
