Authors: Mala Kumar, Manisha Chaudhry

Sonu, Monu and Rina set out to
play.
They saw a kitten.

She was looking at a big rat.
"Oh look!" shouted Sonu.

3/12

Rina saw a tiny ant going towards
the big rat.

4/12

Suddenly, a very big shadow fell
upon them all.

5/12

A very big eagle came down
to the wall.
A tiny ant, a small kitten,
a big rat and a very big eagle
in the same long street!

6/12

What would the three clever
children do now?

7/12

They clapped their little hands!
The eagle spread its big wings and
flew away.

8/12

Rina made the ant climb onto a leaf.
She left the leaf on the wall.
The ant saw a grain of sugar. She
picked it up and ran home.

9/12

The big rat picked up a half-eaten
pakoda and went back into the
drain.
The small kitten said 'miaaww' and
started licking her paw.

10/12

Monu got her some milk in a cup.
The three kids played with her.

11/12

The very big eagle sitting on the
tree blinked and flew far away.

12/12
