On the left side of the image, Dr. Can Do stands inside a cosy stone cottage interior, facing the viewer with a calm, determined expression and one arm extended downward, pointing at a soft carpet spread across the floor β€” demonstrating how sheep's wool can be turned into carpet for home improvement. He is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. The room has stone walls, a wooden ceiling, a wooden support beam with a wall-mounted torch above, and a chest nearby. A window looks out onto green surroundings. The right ~40% of the image is plain parchment-coloured background reserved for text.

When Dr. Can Do arrived in the village, he had a huge idea. He could make every home better than before. Standing in a cosy stone cottage, he pointed at a soft carpet on the floor. "I made this from sheep's wool," he said. "Imagine what we could do with a whole flock!"

On the right side of the image, Dr. Can Do stands in the foreground near the wooden fence, facing the viewer at a three-quarter angle with a thoughtful, determined expression as he surveys the flock and considers how to manage the shearing. He is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. Behind him, several Minecraft-style sheep stand in a fenced grassy pen β€” one black sheep in the centre wedged between two white sheep β€” with a brick and wood barn structure visible in the background. The scene is set outdoors in bright daylight on a village farm. The left ~40% is a plain beige text area.

Out by the village barn, a large flock of sheep grazed behind a wooden fence. A black sheep stood in the middle of the group, wedged between two white ones. Shearing them all by hand took so much energy. There had to be a way to manage the job without doing it all himself. What if a machine could do the shearing instead?

On the left side of the image, Dr. Can Do stands in the foreground of a warm wooden barn, facing the viewer with a kind, attentive expression as he oversees the sheep in their glass enclosures. He is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. Behind him, several sheep stand inside individual glass enclosures within the barn, lit by warm glowing lanterns between the pens. The sheep face forward with calm expressions, each contained in its own transparent cage. A gentle shearing machine is visible near the enclosures. Large piles of colourful wool are stacked nearby. The scene is set indoors in a rustic wooden shelter with green grass visible at the base, under a daytime sky peeking above the roofline. The right side is plain background reserved for text.

Dr. Can Do built a gentle machine that did the job. Now the sheep spent a short time in glass cages inside a warm barn, while the machine gathered their wool. Lanterns glowed between each cage, keeping the animals calm. He was kind and swapped the sheep over so none stayed too long. Soon he had huge piles of wool in every colour you could imagine.

On the right side of the image, Jill and Dr. Can Do stand together on a grassy village path near a wooden shed, facing the viewer with friendly expressions. Jill is a blocky, Minecraft-style female character with a square head, shoulder-length auburn/copper-orange hair with a side-swept fringe, large round dark eyes, light fair skin, and a small open-mouthed smile. She wears a bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt at the waist, dark brown pants, and brown boots, and holds a grey-and-brown pickaxe in her right hand. Beside her, Dr. Can Do is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes with an enthusiastic expression. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. The scene is set outdoors on a bright, sunny day with green lawns, shrubs, and trees visible in the background. The left side of the image is a plain beige area reserved for text overlay.

"Why not give a villager this job?" Jill said, standing with Dr. Can Do on the village path near a wooden shed. "You could hire a shepherd to look after the wool." "That's a genius idea!" Dr. Can Do said. "We'll build a large Wool Shop on the edge of the village, where a shepherd can run the whole thing."

Dr. Can Do stands on the left side of the image on a flat dirt area, facing the viewer at a three-quarter angle with a determined expression as he surveys the ground where he will build the Wool Shop. He is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. The scene is set outdoors at sunrise, with the sun low on the horizon casting a warm golden-orange glow across a village landscape in the background. The right ~40% of the image is a plain beige text overlay area.

The orange sunrise crept above the ridge, and Dr. Can Do was already at work. He stood at the edge of a flat patch of dirt, planning where each wall and beam would go. This hut would be giant, with huge shelves to store all the wool.

On the right side of the image, the interior of the newly finished Wool Shop is shown with warm lantern light glowing from hanging lanterns. Shepherd stands at the centre by a wooden loom, facing the viewer with a warm smile. He is a blocky, Minecraft-style character with a stocky, square-proportioned body, peach/tan skin, and dark brown hair visible beneath a brown flat cap. He has small black rectangular eyes, a small nose, dark brown eyebrows, and slight stubble on his chin. He wears a brown tunic over a white collared shirt, brown pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a tall wooden shepherd's crook in his left hand while extending his right hand toward Jill, offering her a gorgeous green gem. Jill stands nearby, facing the viewer at a three-quarter angle with a small open-mouthed smile, holding a bundle of wool. She is a blocky, Minecraft-style female character with shoulder-length auburn/copper-orange hair with a side-swept fringe, large round dark eyes, light fair skin. She wears a bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt, dark brown pants, and brown boots, with her grey-and-brown pickaxe resting at her side. A large pile of bright red wool sits on the floor beside the loom. Dr. Can Do stands in the background near the doorway, observing the scene with a satisfied expression. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. The room has wooden plank floors and walls with a brick accent wall. The left side is a plain beige text area.

When the Wool Shop was finished, a man passing by stepped inside and spotted the loom. He took up the job on the spot, becoming the new shepherd. He stood by his loom, with a large pile of bright red wool around him and warm lantern light above. When Jill brought him a bundle of wool, he smiled. With a kind gesture, he handed her a shiny green gem in return.

On the left side of the image, Dr. Can Do stands in the lower-left foreground, facing toward the right at a three-quarter angle with a calm, observant expression as he watches the shepherd at work. He is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. Behind him is the wooden Wool Shop building with warm lantern lighting, where Shepherd can be seen inside tending to sheep penned behind fences, gathering bundles of wool and adding them to a growing pile. Shepherd is a blocky, Minecraft-style character with a brown flat cap, brown tunic over a white collared shirt, and holds a tall wooden shepherd's crook. Several sheep are visible in the background enclosure. The right ~40% of the image is a plain parchment-style background reserved for text overlay.

Later, Dr. Can Do stopped by the Wool Shop to see how the shepherd was managing. Inside, fresh bundles arrived from the barn, and the shepherd added each one to a growing pile beside his loom. It felt like magic. Soon there would be enough wool to change every home in the village.

On the right side of the image, Dr. Can Do stands indoors in a cosy village cottage with a wooden ceiling, gazing out through a window on the far right with a satisfied smile, as if imagining his next big project. He is a blocky, Minecraft-inspired character with a cube-shaped head, light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and small dark eyes. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. The room features gorgeous colourful paintings hanging on the walls and a soft carpet covering the floor, reflecting the village improvements made with wool. A wooden chest sits nearby. Through the window, Jill is partially visible outside on the village path, her shoulder-length auburn/copper-orange hair and bright orange sleeveless top recognisable as she calls out toward the cottage. The scene is set indoors during daytime with the village visible outside. The left side is a plain beige text area.

Dr. Can Do stood in a cosy cottage, smiling at the change all around him. Colourful paintings hung on the walls, and a soft carpet covered the floor. "Now I have huge stacks of wool left over," he said, looking out the window. "Enough to build a giant windmill! Think of what it could do!" From somewhere outside, Jill called back, "Don't you ever take a holiday?"
