Once upon a time, there lived a boy name Adam in a city. He loved to read friends in the jungle. From next day he also went with his friends to play and his

books. He was also the most intelligent in the class. He would spend much of his friends also started reading books for getting information. They realised that

would tease him.

One day his friends decided to go out and camp in a Jungle. They also

invited Adam. Adam happily said yes as he loved nature a lot. He also thought Kashish Mudholkar (VI)
that he would get to know more about nature. So the next day the children got

ready and set out for the jungle. After walking for a long time they all sat near a

river as they were hungry, thirsty and tired. They all drank water and played for
some time. Suddenly they saw a herd of elephants. The elephants were furious

and were breaking the trees. Children left their bags and ran as fast as they
could. They went deep into the jungle. It was getting dark and all were very

hungry and scared.

Adam asked the boys to split up into groups.’’ One group should bring
fruits, the other should bring wood and dry leaves for the fire and the last

should bring fish.’’ Said Adam. The boys did as they were told. They all gathered
food and lit up a bonfire. One of them said, “If Adam was not there I would have

picked wild or poisonous fruits”. They all slept on a huge tree to keep away from

wild animals. The next day, taking out a compass out of his pocket Adam said, “I
have a compass. We shall use it and go home “.one of them said ‘’ why didn’t you

show it yesterday?’’Adam said,’’It was getting dark and it is not good to roam in
the jungle as we might end up being in front of a wild animal. The other said,” Do

you know how to use it?”.” Yes, I do know”, said Adam.

On the way back, boys saw many different animals and Adam would give a
bit of extra information about them. The friends explored a lot and finally

reached home. Adam parents were worried about him. Adam explain everything
about his adventure in the jungle. His mother said to him,’’ Adam you spend

most of your time in reading books. Your friends call you for playing but you are

not there. And you miss the fun time with your friends .
