But he did not have any wood. He did not have a hammer or a saw. He only had nails. Where can I find the things I need? Johannes wondered. Then he remembered. The marketplace would have those things! 14158_01-08.indd 214158_01-08.indd 2 3/4/05 7:51:02 PM3/4/05 7:51:02 PM In the marketplace, Johannes saw a merchant selling wood. “I want to be a carpenter,” Johannes said to the merchant. “I have nails. But I need some wood.” “I need nails to fix my sign,” the merchant said. “If you’ll fix my sign, I’ll give you some wood.” Johannes fixed the sign and took a wagon of wood. 3 sign 14158_01-08.indd 314158_01-08.indd 3 3/4/05 7:51:05 PM3/4/05 7:51:05 PM 4 In the next stall, Johannes saw another merchant.

He carried his nails, his wood, his hammer, his saw, and his safety gear. “I will build my own stall,” he said. He cut the wood with the saw. He hammered the nails into the wood. When the stall was done, he hung out a sign that said: Carpenter. “Now I am a carpenter!” he said. 14158_01-08.indd 814158_01-08.indd 8 3/4/05 7:51:30 PM3/4/05 7:51:30 PM Talk About It 1.
