10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: today's story comes to us from James and John Ty.

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: Are you guys ready for this amazing adventure? Me too,

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: Let's go. It was a rainy day outside as James

13
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: and Johnty's faces were pressed up against the window, very

14
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: disappointed because they were hoping to play outside today because

15
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: it was a Saturday. But oh, that rain just messed

16
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: up all their plan. What are we gonna do? James

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: said John. I don't know. I was really hoping that

18
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 1: we could work more in our fort today. This rain

19
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: completely ruined that plan, said James. He was pretty frustrated

20
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: about that. Have you ever felt frustrated that it's raining? Yeah?

21
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: Me too. Sometimes the rain can make our plans have

22
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: to change and if it's raining outside, what's something that

23
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: you like to do while it's inside. M maybe build

24
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: something cool, or play a game, or build a fort.

25
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: There's there's actually a lot of things to do inside,

26
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: maybe with some toys or your imagination. But today I

27
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: think James and John Ty's imagination is going to get

28
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: blown away when one of their toys comes to life. Hey,

29
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: why don't you two guys go check up in the

30
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: attict There's a whole bunch of old stuff up there

31
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: that maybe you could have fun with, said one of

32
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: their parents. Oh that sounds cool, said John T. H

33
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: it's kind of gross up there, said James. There's just

34
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: like a ton of spiderwebs and like creepy stuff up there. Yeah,

35
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: but it could be fun, said John t. Let's go.

36
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: The two walked over down the hallway to where the

37
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 1: ladder was to get up in the attic. They pulled

38
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: down the ladder from the ceiling and were instantly greeted

39
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: by some dust and dirt and of course cobwebs. Oh disgusting,

40
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: said James. No one's opened this thing in like years. Yeah,

41
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: but there's that probably means there's some cool stuff up there.

42
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: Let's go john T was the first one up the ladder.

43
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: As he pulled his way up inside the attic, he

44
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: turned on the light by pulling that string by the

45
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: light bulb and the light popped on and he took

46
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: a look around. Whoa, James, you've got to get up here.

47
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: There's so much stuff that I've never seen before. Come on, okay,

48
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: said James. He held out one of his hands in

49
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: front of his head, trying to wipe all the cobwebs

50
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: away before it touched his face, because that is that's

51
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: pretty disgusting if a cobweb touches your face, Am I right? Yeah,

52
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: that's pretty gross. Well, James pushed his way through and

53
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: finally climbed up to the attic, and he was brushing

54
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: the side of his arms and his body with his

55
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: hands to just get all the icky stuff off that

56
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: might have touched him along the way. That's gross. Okay,

57
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: john T, what have you found? Show me something cool

58
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: or else I'm gonna leave. I don't even know where

59
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: to start, said john T. There, look at that. There's

60
00:03:52,960 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: an old, I don't know, medieval metal costume thing over there. Uh,

61
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: there's a pirate hat here. WHOA, let me see that

62
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: pirate hat, said James. Here you go. Wow, that is

63
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: pretty cool, said James. And look at all these boxes

64
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: over here. I haven't even touched that whole section of

65
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: the attic. And and on the other side, dude, we

66
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: could spend all day up here and we could actually

67
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: maybe find a treasure. Treasure, said James. Yeah, this house

68
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: is pretty old, and you just never know what you

69
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: could find up in an attic like this. Very true.

70
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 1: James and Johnty spent a while looking through all kinds

71
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: of things and then came to a box marked Magical Toys.

72
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: They both looked at each other and knew that they

73
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: had to check out what was inside. Johnty reached his

74
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: hands inside the box and pulled out a smaller box.

75
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: This looks like a puzzle, said James. It's not very magical. Whoa,

76
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: whoa hold on there, it said, It's magical toys. And uh,

77
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: this is the only thing in that box, so it's

78
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: got to be true. I want to try it out,

79
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: said Yeah. I do kind of like doing puzzles when

80
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: it's a rainy day. Yeah, let's let's go do that,

81
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: said James. James and john Ty had found a magical puzzle.

82
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 1: At least that's what it said in the box. It

83
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: was very old. It was hard to tell what the

84
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: picture on the box was, so they would need to

85
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: use all the puzzle pieces to find out. They climbed

86
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: down the ladder and found a table and started working

87
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: on the puzzle. Puzzles can be really fun. I actually

88
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: love doing puzzles. I first start with all the edge pieces.

89
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: You know what the edge pieces are. Yeah, when you're

90
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: doing a puzzle, look for those pieces that have a

91
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: straight edge to it. That means that's the outside of

92
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: the puzzle. And then once you get all the way,

93
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: like all the edge of the puzzle, then you can

94
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: start filling on the middle parts of the puzzle and

95
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: you can find out what picture the puzzle is. James

96
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: and John Ty were both masters at puzzles, and it

97
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: wasn't long before they were almost done with this puzzle.

98
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: All right, just a couple more pieces left, said James.

99
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: Wait a second, it looks like there's five holes on

100
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: the puzzle and only four pieces. Wait, look around on

101
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: the floor. John Ty got on his hands and knees

102
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: and started looking around for a missing puzzle piece while

103
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: James finished putting those four pieces into the puzzle. Wow,

104
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 1: this is awesome. It's like a whole jungle with animals,

105
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: and this is a really cool picture of the puzzle. Hey,

106
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: John Ty, do you see that missing piece down there? Uh?

107
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 1: Nothing down here? Is there anything left on the table? Nope,

108
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 1: nothing here, said James. Hold on, I'll run up to

109
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: the attic and check that box if there's one last

110
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: piece in there. While John Ty ran back up to

111
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: the attic to check that box to see if there

112
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: was one more piece that might have fallen out of

113
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: the puzzle box, James couldn't stop thinking about why that

114
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: box said magical toys on it Is this puzzle some

115
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: kind of magic? He asked himself. I found it, shouted

116
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: John t from up in the attic. There the last piece.

117
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: Johnty held it triumphantly over his head as he was

118
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: running down the stairs from the attic. All right, I'm

119
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: gonna put in the final piece and then we are

120
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: done with our puzzle. That is definitely the most exciting

121
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: part of a puzzle, the final piece. Whoever gets to

122
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: put in that last piece, that is a very special

123
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: puzzle honor that needs to be held with great respect.

124
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 1: As Johnty put this final piece into the puzzle. They

125
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: took a step back and admired their beautiful work. Wow,

126
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: that that's a cool puzzle, said James. It seriously feels

127
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: like we could just walk right in and step into

128
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: that jungle right there. It was a very large puzzle

129
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: with a picture of the jungle and the waterfall, and

130
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: it was really cool. Hold on a second, said John t.

131
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: When I put that final piece in, I swear those

132
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: leaves started moving. Look, they leaned closer down to the

133
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: puzzle that was on their table, and that's exactly what

134
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: was happening. The leaves on the trees looked like they

135
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: were moving. How is that possible, said James. This is

136
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: just a picture. They both couldn't believe it. John Ty

137
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 1: put his finger down on the puzzle. When he touched it,

138
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: it felt like his finger went through and into the puzzle.

139
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 1: He quickly pulled it back out. Whoa, look at that

140
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: My finger soaking wet, like I just went to the rainforest.

141
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: Wait a second, what said James Johnty When he touched

142
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: the puzzle, his finger in his hand like went into

143
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: the puzzle, like for real. They both couldn't believe it

144
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: was this puzzle actually magical. There's only one way to

145
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: find out, said John Ty. Here, help me lift the

146
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: puzzle and put it on the ground. They carefully grabbed

147
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: all four corners of the puzzle and gently placed it

148
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: on the ground. They could see the water was moving

149
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: and the trees and leaves were blowing in the wind.

150
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: I'm not going first, said James. Oh, I know, just

151
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 1: come on in after me. Let's go one, two, three.

152
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: And with that, Johnty jumped right on top of the

153
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: puzzle and he got sucked inside. Aid Holy smokes. James

154
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: couldn't believe it and followed closely behind. What followed next

155
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,320
