You can only alter the size and shape of a text box when that text box is
"selected". This means that you can see the four "handles" at each of the
four corners of the box. When you double-click on the text box, then you
can physically enter or change the text in the box. Unfortunately, the box
is no longer "selected" once you start entering text. After you've changed
your text, you need to click on white space outside of the text box, then
click once on the box so that the box is selected. Once it's selected, you
can resize it to your heart's content.
