Shh. It is a quiet afternoon. The sun is warm. The room is still. Jamal sits down to play.
Look! A big board. Black squares. White squares. Black and white, black and white.
Jamal picks up a piece. Tap! He puts it down. Ooh — a circle appears! A big, bold, black circle.
Tap! Another piece goes down. A white square appears! Big and bright. So bright!
Tap! Tap! Tap! More pieces. More shapes! Zigzags! Black zigzags, up and down, up and down.
Circle, square, zigzag. Circle, square, zigzag. Can you say it? Circle, square, zigzag!
Black and white. Black and white. Stripes and dots and shapes so bright. But wait — oh no!
One little piece has rolled away! Where did it go? Can you find it?
Jamal looks here. Jamal looks there. He looks under the big white circle.
There it is! Jamal picks it up. He puts it gently back. Tap!
All the shapes begin to swirl! Circles, squares, and zigzags spin together. They make one big, beautiful, sparkling black-and-white star!
The shapes settle. The room is still. Jamal smiles a big, soft smile. Shhh. Time for a cozy nap. Goodnight, shapes. Goodnight, star. Goodnight, Jamal.
