clever and smart. He was good his studies and had good

hobbies, too. He loved to swim in the village pond for

hours. He had so many friends to play with. They loved
flying kites. They used to make colourful kites. The boy
was always busy. When he had no work, he used to go

for a long walk. He loved to watch the beauty of nature.

He was very curious about everything around him.

The boy waited for evening every day, because it was
time to listen to stories from his father. Many village

people used to come to his father to listen to the stories
of the Ramayana, the Mahabharata and other stories.

The father also used to play on the veena and violin.
The boy enjoyed the sweet music. He was so curious

to know everything.
