Are you guys ready for today's adventure? 10 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: Me too, Let's go. Cale and Jane were sitting in 11 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 1: their seats in the car on their way. They were 12 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: going to art camp and this was no ordinary art camp. 13 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: They had heard that there was some kind of magical 14 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: art that happens at this camp and they just couldn't wait. 15 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: This was a long drive to get to art camp. 16 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: Have you ever been on a long drive in the 17 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: car before? Like, what's the longest you've been? I think 18 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: I've driven for maybe twelve hours in one uh, like 19 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: without stopping. Holy smokes, that was a long time. And 20 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: listening to stories like these, oh, they make those drives 21 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: so much more awesome. Well, as Cale and Jane were 22 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: sitting there during this long drive, at least they had 23 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: some paper in their lap that they could draw and 24 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: doodle on. Hey, Gil, that is a really cool thing 25 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 1: you drew. What is that? Said Jane. Oh this this 26 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: is a whole like empire. You see. This is a 27 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: castle here, and here's a forest with like huge creatures, 28 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: and here's all the people in the city. Wow, that 29 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: is amazing, said Jane. Yeah. Cale was a really great artist. 30 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: He had spent so much time on this project and 31 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: it was well worth it. And Jane, let me see yours, 32 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: said Cale. Jane handed Cale her piece of paper, and whoa, 33 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: that is so awesome, said Kyle. Yeah. I'm not sure 34 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: exactly what it is yet, but it's a mix of 35 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of different animals into one a new creature. 36 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: I see that. That's so cool, said Cale. Jane had 37 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: drawn this imaginative creature that I don't think has ever 38 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: existed before. But it was like a mix of a 39 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: whole bunch of different animals. If you could draw an 40 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: imaginative animal, what would you draw? What kind of animals 41 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: do you think would be a cool combination? And just 42 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: then their parents said all right, guys, let's get out. 43 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: We're here, what said Jane as she looked up and 44 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: looked out the window, And there they were. They had 45 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 1: finally made it to art camp and they didn't even 46 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: realize that they were there. Cale and Jane jumped out 47 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 1: the door and grabbed their bags, and they barely had 48 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: enough time to give their parents a hug and a 49 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: kiss goodbye, and off they ran to camp. They couldn't 50 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: believe it. They had heard of this magical art school 51 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: camp for like a long, long, long long time. They 52 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: couldn't wait to get started. Have you ever been to 53 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: a camp before? Yeah? With other kids and counselors and 54 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: cabins and oh, it is such a cool special place. 55 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: As Cale and Jane found their cabins and met up 56 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: with some new friends, they all had to meet at 57 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: the pavilion to get started on their first class. All right, students, welcome, welcome, welcome, 58 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: and it's great to see you. That was the art 59 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: school teacher. He had been a magical artist for years 60 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: and year, years and years. He had a gray beard 61 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: and kind of a silly little hat. But everyone was 62 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: in focus mode. They had to pay attention. This was 63 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: the real deal. All right, Well, underneath your seats you 64 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: will find a special pencil, and this pettil pencil you 65 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: must never lose or it will be terrible. And all right, 66 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: there are also many instructions, and make sure that you 67 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: follow all the steps on the piece of paper that 68 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: is next to a pencil. All right, Klass, I will 69 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: see you in the morning and we will get started 70 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: post taste. Good day. Cale and Jane were sitting by 71 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: each other, and they both picked up that pencil and 72 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: the instructions and they started to talk to each other. Jane, 73 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: what do you think he was talking about with this 74 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: magic pencil? It looked pretty normal to me, said Cale. 75 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe this is like the source of 76 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: all the magic. Well, I don't know, but I can 77 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: sure we'll find out tomorrow, said Jane. They folded up 78 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: the piece of paper the instructions and put it in 79 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: one pocket, and then carried their pencil very carefully back 80 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: to their cabins. You see, Kal and Jane they were 81 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: in different cabins, but they did bring their walkie talkies 82 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 1: so that they could talk to each other while they 83 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: were away. Kayle was getting ready for bed and Jane 84 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: was already ready for bed. She was laying in her 85 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: bed in her cabin and wanted it to keep drawing 86 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: that creature that she had started in the car. Where's 87 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,799 Speaker 1: my then? I don't know where my pen is, said Jane. 88 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: All her pens and markers and stuff that she had 89 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: brought with she just couldn't find that bag. It was 90 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: somewhere in here and it was dark. Oh well, I 91 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: guess I'll use this pencil that they gave to us 92 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: at class, said Jane as she pulled it out of 93 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: her bag. Hold, wait a second, is she about to 94 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: use the magic pencil that their professor teacher told them? 95 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: Oh dear, she just not know what she's in for. 96 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: As Jane started to draw on her piece of paper 97 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: with that new pencil, she was finishing all the important 98 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: special details, because you know, when you make a drawing, 99 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: sometimes the smallest details, like the little pieces of hair 100 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: on the creature, or maybe its teeth, or maybe wrinkles 101 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: in its forehead, all those little details are sometimes the 102 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: most important part. Well, she was finishing going over the 103 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: whole creature. Ah, there, that looks perfect. She set down 104 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: her pencil and put her paper up against the wall 105 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: next to her bed. And flicked off the light. She 106 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: grabbed her walkie talkie and called out to Kyle. Sh Hey, Kayle, 107 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: are you awake? Are you over there over sh sh hey? Jane, Yeah, 108 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: I'm still awake, said Kayle. I've just been having a 109 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: ton of fun making new friends over here. What have 110 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: you been doing, sh Well, I've been. I finished my drawing. 111 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: I couldn't find my pencil, so I had to use 112 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: that one that was under the chair. But it looks 113 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: really cool now, sh you use the what you used? 114 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: That pencil that they gave us, But we don't know 115 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: how to use it? And isn't that the magic one? 116 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: Sh said Cale. Yeah, but I'm sure there's nothing. Wait 117 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: what was that? Jane felt something fall off the wall 118 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: as she turned her light on. Jane shouted so loudly 119 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: it woke up the entire cabin as they all came 120 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: running over to Jane to see if she was okay. Jane, 121 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: are you okay? Said one of her new friends. Jane, 122 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: What was that? Said Kyle on the walkie talkie. They 123 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: couldn't believe their eyes. Oh, Cale, You're not gonna believe 124 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: this is that drawing I did on the paper? It 125 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: came to life. Kid is now sitting on my sleeping 126 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: bag at the end of my bed. Sh it did what? 127 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: Holy smokes, guys, Jane has just uncovered the magic that 128 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: lives inside that pencil. It's for real. The drawing that 129 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: she had made of combining all these creatures into one fluffy, 130 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: adorable little I don't know what to call. It kind 131 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: of looked like a cross between a rabbit and a 132 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: wolf and a lion and a unicorn. But it was 133 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: very small, like a small kitten, and it was so cute. 134 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: I hope it's nice. Everyone in Jane's cabin thought that 135 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: they were dreaming. They all rubbed their eyes, but it 136 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: was no dream. As the counselor walked over and said, Jane, 137 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, you didn't use that magic pencil, did you. Uh? 138 00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: Jane looked around. Uh I did? Am I in trouble? No, 139 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 1: You're not in trouble, said the counselor. But I guess 140 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: you have been the first one to figure out what 141 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: makes that magic pencil magic. Now you need to put 142 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: your special creature in a safe place, and I'm sure 143 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: the professor will explain more about this in tomorrow's class. 144 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: As Jane said, good night to everybody, and Cale on 145 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: the walkie talkie.
