Summary
Based on the Chinese puzzle game, this story follows a magician as he changes into a variety of shapes, which the reader can also create with the accompanying red foam pieces.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Legend has it that one thousand years ago, a man dropped a porcelain tile. It broke into seven piecesfive triangles, one square, and one parallelogram. When he tried to reassemble the square, he discovered he could create hundreds of different images from just those seven pieces.

Tangram Magician brings this ancient Chinese puzzle to the children and grown-ups of today. As the work of the magician unfolds, the reader can make the designs using the seven puzzle pieces provided along with the book. The dense-foam puzzle comes in a reusable plastic storage box artfully inset into the diecut cover. And when the story is done, there are hours of additional fun creating your own designs.

Simple enough for a six-year-old, sophisticated enough for a sixty-year-old.
