Five-year-old Roozie rushed to Mom : - ‘Are you going to Book Fair ?’ Mom nodded ‘ Yes, but you are not to go. Roozie - ‘ This isn’t fair. You don’t care for me ! ‘ Mom - ‘So far I know, you don’t like to study at all. For you I will buy bat ball. Last year I bought you nice picture book, Few pages you took out and pasted on wall. Book was spoiled, wall looked dirty’. Roozie- ‘ I’m hale and hearty. Why had you bought books without my consent ? It was your fault. I’m just innocent.’ Mom- ‘On page of the book, you have put remarks of your own. Few pages were torn. Not good.' Roozie - ‘ Don’t be rude. Rhymes were incomplete. So I had to write some sentences to match it. It was written that , pigs had no hats. They must be sad. I wish to feel them glad. I was considerate to claim hats for them. I added extra line to make all fine.’ Mom - ‘Dusty fair ground ! You have allergy to dust.’ Roozie- ‘So what? Buy mask just.’ Dust proof Masks were available , rather You didn’t bother as price didn’t suit you. That’s my view . But I know, Honey ! You had enough money. Mom- Okay. Which type of book do you need ? I’ll buy indeed. Fairy tales, fun stories, stories of ghost ? Which type do you like most ?’ Roozie- ‘I am least interested in books, Dear ! I’m making it clear. My only urge to have Extra large fluffy cotton candy sold ( as I have already told ) only in Book Fair ! Please do care.’
