A BOOK REVIEW:
This book is about a ten year old girl who's name is Ellen. She is always obeying her mother who is a friendly piano-tutor having strange students.One day when she looks into her bathroom mirror she has a big surprise.Yes,she sees her reflection but reflections don't talk back.Now here starts Ellen's new mysterious world.This book is a collection of 3 stories of Mirror - Belle-The mysterious girl who says she is a princess from a faraway palace.in some time they both are good buddies.They have endless adventures together.But the point is that Mirror-Belle is very naughty and leads Ellen into all kinds of amazing adventures and troubles .Mirror-Belle is always boasting about her life back in the palace.  ''I 'm Mirror -Belle .You really ought to curtsy but as you are my friend I'll let you off ''-she says to Ellen when she first meets her.Mirror-Belle appears from nowhere as soon as Ellen looks into the mirror or any mirror -like reflecting object like the lake,television etc.Ellen and Mirror -Belle are both alike.If Ellen wears something greenish-blue so will Mirror-Belle,and they even have identical dogs.Belle is all new to Ellen's world and so she has a lot to take in.Whereas on the other hand Ellen is always trying to convince her parents to believe about Mirror-Belle but they never understand that and alway
s think that Ellen's making stories but it isn't actually the truth.When you read this book you will probably be lost in Eleen and Mirror-Belle's exciting world.This book is recommended by me.I have read this book and find it very original.

When Wishes Come True by Rabindranath Tagore

A BOOK REVIEW: This story explains that you always don't get what you wish for, and if you do there can be many complications. It explains one of the most important part of  our life. It tells us that our childhood is something we should enjoy to its fullest, for time never turns back. The story has two protagonists so it isn’t exactly possible to hate anyone. Tagore begins by saying that namesakes aren’t always true- a reference to Subal and Sushi, ad their paradoxical attitudes. As they make their wishes they are granted, too. But as said in the preamble there were too many complications. This book actually was a reconciliation of four stories and I liked this story the best. Its author, Rabindranath Tagore, was a well known poet, laureate, artist and philosopher- he wrote elegant prose and magical poetry. His stories are quite sensitive, fresh and beautiful.

Stages of a Stressful Homework

HOMEWORK- SHOULD IT BE BANNED: PART II After coming to a conclusion that homework can be worthwhile as well as another thing for the students to sweat about, this post illuminates the stages a student goes through when completing a homework- before, during and after. Before receiving a bundle of homework the students, generally, are seen trying to enjoy the last minutes of their freedom and sovereignty. Once having obtained homework from one subject, they try to prepare themselves for the upcoming war. By the end of school, they are already analyzing how much of their play time will be compromised in trying to complete the homework. Even though, some humane teachers don’t ask for the submission of the homework the following day straightaway, but majority of the students prefer completing the homework beforehand due to their own explicit reasons, one of which being the fact that teachers give extra marks to those who submit homework and assignments before the deadline. The s...

The Story of All Parents.

Note to my dearest parents: Happy birthday! I am sorry I cannot give a better gift to you than a mere blog post- but words are the only gifts that can even come close to explain how much I love you, and how much you mean to me. I hope you understand. Parents. They are the only people in the universe who give you every single thing in the world and never ask for it back. They let you dwell on your dreams and keep the problems faced during the course of accomplishing it to themselves. They will always let you think that everything is alright even when they are under more pressure than they can handle. Parents will do anything to shield you from your fears and enemies but yet won’t be afraid to tell you to stop when you walk into the wrong direction. They act like a compass- it shows you the right direction flawlessly unless there is too much of magnetic force. Similarly, parents can tell you what to do and what not to, but once you start to take into account- the...
