Megh Ase Rodh Hanshe: Children's Classic Literature

'Suku' was very good in his academics and he had an inquisitive mind that prompted him to explore unknowns with enthusiasm. Once he got attracted to his father's beaming 'Parker' pen that he found in his father's study table drawer and he was tempted to take it to his school to impress his friends. That very day, he also carried a live 'beetle' to school, encased in a box to try studying its behavior through the day and perhaps to catch few advises about the insect from his biology teacher - 'Father Dyson'. But things went out of control as his classmate - 'Mary Alva' became curious to know about both these curious collections. The insect broke loose and created panic among the kids before jetting out of the window. The resultant commotion also threw the valuable pen somewhere under the desks and Suku was bitter and anxious about losing both his valuables. That evening, Suku's father came enquiringly about the pen but fear psychosis prevented Suku from admitting the truth and to the contrary he tried pushing the blame on to his brother 'Ruku'. Innocent and upright Ruku got very upset while Suku became crestfallen because of his cowardice in owing up the truth and so was their father - 'Dr. Mukherjee', who expected one of his sons to admit his mistake as such accidents might have happened with anyone.  Did Suku manage to overcome his fear psychosis in admitting the truth and what lessons did the two kids learn in the bargain?? Tune in to this all time classic children's literature from the legendary Sanjib Chattopadhyay in yet another classic collection from 'MyStoryGenie' Bengali Audiobooks series.
