Are you guys ready for today's adventure? 10 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. Cale and Jane were sitting in 11 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: their seats in the car on their way. They were 12 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: going to art camp and this was no ordinary art camp. 13 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,959 Speaker 1: They had heard that there was some kind of magical 14 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: art that happens at this camp and they just couldn't wait. 15 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: This was a long drive to get to art camp. 16 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: Have you ever been on a long drive in the 17 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: car before? Like, what's the longest you've been? I think 18 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: I've driven for maybe twelve hours in one uh, like 19 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: without stopping. Holy smokes, that was a long time. And 20 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: listening to stories like these, oh, they make those drives 21 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 1: so much more awesome. Well, as Cale and Jane were 22 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: sitting there during this long drive, at least they had 23 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: some paper in their lap that they could draw and 24 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: doodle on. Hey, Gil, that is a really cool thing 25 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: you drew. What is that? Said Jane. Oh this this 26 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: is a whole like empire. You see. This is a 27 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: castle here, and here's a forest with like huge creatures, 28 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: and here's all the people in the city. Wow, that 29 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: is amazing, said Jane. Yeah. Cale was a really great artist. 30 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: He had spent so much time on this project and 31 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: it was well worth it. And Jane, let me see yours, 32 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: said Cale. Jane handed Cale her piece of paper and whoa, 33 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: that is so awesome, said Cale. Yeah. I'm not sure 34 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: exactly what it is yet, but it's a mix of 35 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of different animals into one a new creature. 36 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: I see that. That's so cool, said Cale. Jane had 37 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 1: drawn this imaginative creature that I don't think has ever 38 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: existed before. But it was like a mix of a 39 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: whole bunch of different animals. If you could draw an 40 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: imaginative animal, what would you draw? What kind of animals 41 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: do you think would be a cool combination? And just 42 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: then their parents said all right, guys, let's get out. 43 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: We're here, what said Jane as she looked up and 44 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: looked out the window, And there they were. They had 45 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: finally made it to art camp and they didn't even 46 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: realize that they were there. Cale and Jane jumped out 47 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: the door and grabbed their bags, and they barely had 48 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: enough time to give their parents a hug and a 49 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: kiss goodbye, and off they ran to camp. They couldn't 50 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: believe it. They had heard of this magical art school 51 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: camp for like a long, long, long long time. They 52 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: couldn't wait to get started. Have you ever been to 53 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: a camp before? Yeah? With other kids and counselors and 54 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: cabins and oh, it is such a cool special place. 55 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: As Cale and Jane found their cabins and met up 56 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: with some new friends, they all had to meet at 57 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: the pavilion to get started on their first class. All right, students, welcome, welcome, welcome, 58 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: and it's great to see you. That was the art 59 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: school teacher. He had been a magical artist for years, 60 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: in year and years. He had a gray beard and 61 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: kind of a silly little hat. But everyone was in 62 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: focus mode. They had to pay attention. This was the 63 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: real deal, all right, well, underneath your seats you will 64 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:20,559 Speaker 1: find a special pencil, and this pettil pencil you must 65 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: never lose or it will be terrible. And all right, 66 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: there are also many instructions, and make sure that you 67 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: follow all the steps on the piece of paper that 68 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: is next to his a pencil. All right, Klass, I 69 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: will see you in the morning and we will get 70 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: started post taste. Good day. Cale and Jane were sitting 71 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: by each other, and they both picked up that pencil 72 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: and the instructions and they started to talk to each other. Jane, 73 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: what do you think he was talking about with this 74 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: magic pencil? It looks pretty normal to me, said Cale. 75 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe this is like the source of 76 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: all the magic. Well, I don't know, but I ca'm 77 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: sure we'll find out tomorrow, said Jane. They folded up 78 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: the piece of paper the instructions and put it in 79 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: one pocket, and then carried their pencil very carefully back 80 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: to their cabins. You see, Kal and Jane they were 81 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: in different cabins, but they did bring their walkie talkies 82 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: so that they could talk to each other while they 83 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: were away. Kayle was getting ready for bed and Jane 84 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: was already ready for bed. She was laying in her 85 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: bed in her cabin and wanted to keep drawing that 86 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: creature that she had started in the car. Where's my then? 87 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: I don't know where my pen is, said Jane. All 88 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: her pens and markers and stuff that she had brought 89 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: with she just couldn't find that bag. It was somewhere 90 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: in here and it was dark. Oh well, I guess 91 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: I'll use this pencil that they gave to us at class, 92 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: said Jane as she pulled it out of her bag. Hold, 93 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: wait a second, is she about to use the magic 94 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: pencil that their professor teacher told them? Oh dear, she 95 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: just not know what she's in for. As Jane started 96 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: to draw on her piece of paper with that new pencil, 97 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: she was finishing all the important special details, because you know, 98 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: when you make a drawing, sometimes the smallest details like 99 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: the little pieces of hair on the creature, or maybe 100 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: its teeth, or maybe wrinkles in its forehead, all those 101 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: little details are sometimes the most important part. Well, she 102 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: was finishing going over the whole creature. Ah, there, that 103 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: looks perfect. She set down her pencil and put her 104 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: paper up against the wall next to her bed and 105 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: flicked off the light. She grabbed her walkie talkie and 106 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: called that to Kyle. Sh Hey, Kayle, are you awake? 107 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: Are you over there over sh sh hey? Jane, Yeah, 108 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm still awake, said Kyle. I've just been having a 109 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: ton of fun making new friends over here. What have 110 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: you been doing, sh Well, I've been. I finished my drawing. 111 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: I couldn't find my pencil, so I had to use 112 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: that one that was under the chair. But it looks 113 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: really cool now, sh you use the what you used? 114 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: That pencil that they gave us, But we don't know 115 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: how to use it? And isn't that the magic one? 116 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: Sh said Cale. Yeah, but I'm sure there's nothing. Wait 117 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: what was that? Jane felt something fall off the wall 118 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: as she turned her light on. Jane shouted so loudly 119 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: it woke up the entire cabin as they all came 120 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: running over to Jane to see if she was okay. Jane, 121 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: are you okay? Said one of her new friends. Jane, 122 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: what was that? Said Kayle on the walkie talkie. They 123 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: couldn't believe their eyes. Oh, Cale, You're not gonna believe this. 124 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: That drawing I did on the paper, it came to life, 125 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: it is now sitting on my sleeping bag at the 126 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: end of my bed. Sh it did what? Holy smokes, guys, 127 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: Jane has just uncovered the magic that lives inside that pencil. 128 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: It's for real. The drawing that she had made of 129 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: combining all these creatures into one fluffy, adorable little I 130 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: don't know what to call. It kind of looked like 131 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: a cross between a rabbit and a wolf and a 132 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: lion and a unicorn. But it was very small, like 133 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: a small kitten, and it was so cute. I hope 134 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 1: it's nice. Everyone in Jane's cabin thought that they were dreaming. 135 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: They all rubbed their eyes, but it was no dream. 136 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: As the counselor walked over and said, Jane, oh my goodness, 137 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: you didn't use that magic pencil, did you. Uh? Jane 138 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: looked around. Uh I did? Am I in trouble? No, 139 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: You're not in trouble, said the counselor. But I guess 140 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: you have been the first one to figure out what 141 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: makes that magic pencil magic. Now you need to put 142 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: your special creature in a safe place, and I'm sure 143 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: the professor will explain more about this in tomorrow's class. 144 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: As Jane said good night, to everybody and Cale on 145 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: the walkie talkie. Wow, she has just started the most 146 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: amazing art school week of all time with a pretty 147 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: amazing surprise.
