Book Free Demo "My story is quite similar to Ms. English's,"Mr. Geography said in a broken voice. "All my fellow brothers laugh at me whenever Mahesh pulls me out of his bag. I especially envy my brother who belongs to Shobitha. She has not only covered him neatly, her handling is so gentle that he always looks as if he has just stepped out of the bookseller's shop, and,"he added, "she fills in her maps with a pencil!"
And so it went on with all the books, copies, pencil box and even the school bag complaining about Mahesh's negligence. They looked battered and the worse for wear. Justice Mathematics face became dark when he heard that Mahesh tore off pages from the copies to make paper planes. Mahesh withered under his murderous look.

She gently handles her Geography book. And, most importantly, Shobitha had covered her geography book properly and held it in a better way. Shobitha' books will always appear as new as the one that had just stepped out of the bookseller's shop. Also, unlike Mahesh, Shobitha uses pencils for her maps. Justice Mathematics patiently listened to the complaints of Mr. Geography.
The complaints had not stopped with Ms. English and Mr. Geography, but it continued. Other witnesses like books, copies, pencil box and even the school bag made complaints on their issues caused by Mahesh. Everyone complained about the careless attitude of Mahesh. All of them looked worse to use. Suddenly, Justice's face became so dark with anger. It was due to a complaint that Mahesh tore off pages from the copies to make paper planes. Mahesh turned speechless, totally stuck, under his murderous look.
