From Behind the StorieS
Once, a sheet of paper and a notebook were having a conversation.
Sheet: Oh dear! I am tired of children crumpling me, tossing me and
throwing me on the floor or in the dustbin.
Notebook: (sighing) I agree. They have no regard for us. They tear pages out of
me and make paper planes out of the ones that have not even been
used.
Sheet: (sobbing) Do they even realise how we are made?
Notebook: They have absolutely no idea how many trees are cut to supply paper
to them.
Sheet: Thedeforestation caused due to this, leads to flooding and landslides.
Notebook: But why would children care? They get paper easily from a stationery
shop.
