Once upon a time, there was an artist who loved to make things with shapes. One day, they got a new tool that could make any shape they wanted. They were so excited to use it! But when they tried to make a circle, the tool made a square instead. The artist tried again and again, but no matter what shape they wanted to make, the tool always made something different!

They finally realized that the tool wasn't broken, it just had a mind of its own. So, the artist learned to work with the tool and started making some of the most unique and creative pieces of art ever seen. Kids would come from far and wide just to see the artist's work and be amazed at how the tool could make something so different and beautiful.

And that's the story of the shape-shifting artist and their magical tool.

Reflections

1. What was the artist's reaction when the tool made different shapes than what they wanted?
2. How did the artist learn to work with the tool?
3. Why did kids come from far and wide to see the artist's work?
4. Can you think of a time when you had to use something in a different way than intended?
5. How do you think the story would have ended if the artist gave up on the tool?
