Let’s read a story about a brave little girl.


          Rima went to the fair with her uncle. It was a Boishakhi  fair! So many colours
                                                                                 1
          everywhere. Red, white, and all the others. Uncle especially loved red.

          There were so many shops! And so many things to buy!


          Rima looked at everything in wonder.
                                                                               Baisakhi is celebrated all    Language
          Suddenly… she didn’t see her uncle.                                  over India on 13  or 14     Connect

          Where did Uncle go?                                                  April.
                                                                               What do you call Baisakhi

          He was nowhere to be seen! Rima was upset. But                       in your state? How do you
          she did not lose courage.                                            celebrate it?

          ‘I know how to find lost things,’ Rima thought.                     especially: very much

          ‘I will explore the fair and look for Uncle!’                       wonder: a feeling of great surprise
                                                                              upset: worried and unhappy
          A crowd was gathered under a tree watching the                      courage: to be able to control her fear
                                                                              explore: to search a place and discover
