1. Prem lived with his parents in a small village near
Bandipur forest. He had the good habit of taking an
evening walk in the forest. After some days, he became
friendly with the animals and birds in the forest.
2. One day, he came home from school looking sad.
His mother asked, “What is the matter Prem?” He replied,
“Ma, I have heard that many trees in the forest will be cut
down. Where will the animals and birds go if the trees
are cut?”
