Read together
Once upon a time, there was a counter made of obsidian. It went on an adventure to find the best rock for its surface. So, it asked a piece of limestone, "Hey, are you the best rock for my surface?" The limestone replied, "I am strong but brittle. You should look for something better."
The counter went and asked a piece of granite, "Hey, are you the best rock for my surface?" The granite said, "I am strong and durable. I am the perfect fit for you." The counter was happy and went back to its place with the granite. From that day on, the counter was the strongest and most beautiful counter in the land, and everyone who saw it said, "Wow, what a fantastic choice!"

Reflection
- Why did the counter go on an adventure?
- What did the limestone say about itself?
- What was the final decision of the counter?
- How do you think the counter felt about its new surface?
- What would have happened if the counter chose the limestone instead of the granite?
