Poem

She Was There   She was there, On the sunny day of summer, The air is humid, But the mangoes taste sweet.   She was there, On a wooden bench, Under the spiny black olive, Scattered on the ground was the leaves.   She was there, With the patience I admire, The storm in her eye, But the peace in her smile.   I hope she knows, Know that I miss her, So much when she leaves, Know that I need her, Like the air that I breathe.   She was no longer there, But the memories are still here, Farewell

Children's book Review

She discovers some grain and asks her farm friends to help her make bread, but they refuse. Extract from The Little Red Hen book I figured that the illustrations are simple and helpful in understanding the plot. It was very cute and colorful. I get excited by just looking at the illustration🤩 There were several values that I got from reading this story. Frankly speaking, when I first choose this book, I had assumed that The Little Red Hen would be like any other story.  As I was reading this book, I am surprised by how many lessons that I gain from this very short story....
