In the heart of the United States, nestled between the wild, running rivers and towering, majestic pines, lies a whimsical wonder, known as Minnesota. This is a land where summers are a symphony of chirping cicadas and the sizzling barbecues, whereas winters are an enchanting ballet of falling snowflakes and ice-skating foxes. Yes, foxes! And in this magical realm, there is a peculiar group of children who partake in an extraordinary activity that would leave even the foxes astounded - Pottery! Meet Captain Clay Twist, a jolly, round-bellied fellow with a beard as soft as clay and a heart as warm as a kiln. He is the superhero of the Minnesota pottery world and the mentor to these crafty kids. His powers include the ability to shape mud into marvellous creations and fire them into fabulous pottery. But his most magical power is to inject a sense of fun and laughter while doing it. These Minnesotan kids, varying in ages, with freckles and spectacles, are the brave apprentices of Captain Clay Twist. They gather around a giant pottery wheel, wearing aprons as colourful as their imaginations. They plunge their small hands into the cool, squishy clay, giggling as it slithers between their fingers. With Captain Clay Twist's guidance, they transform the globs of mud into fantastic creatures, enchanted castles, and even the occasional misshapen coffee mug, which they proudly present to their unsuspecting parents. So, if you ever find yourself in the whimsical wonderland of Minnesota, don’t be startled when you see a child with clay-splattered clothes and a gleaming smile. They're just another proud Potter-In-Training from the magical land of Captain Clay Twist!
