In "Grandfather Tang's Story," a young girl visits her grandfather, who uses tangrams—seven geometric pieces that can create various shapes—to tell an engaging story about a fox and a rabbit. As he pieces together the shapes, the tale unfolds, highlighting the cleverness of the fox as it attempts to outsmart the rabbit in a whimsical adventure. Through the interplay of storytelling and the visual art of tangrams, the reader is invited to engage their imagination, exploring themes of creativity and problem-solving while enjoying the vibrant illustrations that accompany the narrative.
