📖 Let Us Write – Papa’s Spectacles (Story Form)
Today, my father is unhappy. He has lost his spectacles, and he is searching for them everywhere. He cannot read the newspaper, watch television, or even cut the vegetables. He says, “It was my only pair!”
He checked inside his pockets, looked under the chair, and searched near the window. Still, he couldn’t find them. He looked tired and confused.
I went close to him and said, “Stop, Papa!” Then I smiled and pointed at his head. “Your spectacles are right there on your head!” I said.
Papa laughed and thanked me. We both smiled, and he was able to read his newspaper happily again!
