Raghav's first mind-map and story



The Little Cloud and Her Friends

One day there was a little cloud. She was white and soft. She loved to play hide and seek with her other friend clouds, the sun and the moon. She floated in the sky and had a big smile on her face. She loved her friends and herself. She was very kind, careful and never hurt anybody else.

The little cloud was in another country where it rained every day. Everyday her friend - the wind pushed her into the water gently. The cloud sucked up all the water from the sea, and the wind under the cloud pushed her up into the sky. And then the water came lashing down as rain! The cloud danced and laughed and said “I made everything wet!” She laughed so much that people could not hear what she was saying.

Then there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky. The little cloud went behind the rainbow, hugged and kissed her. She smiled at the rainbow and the rainbow smiled back. The little cloud loved her so much and they became good friends.

  2. This is so nice.
    I love this bit where he says "She loved her friends and herself." Doesnt that say something for his self esteem?
    And..."... and the wind under the cloud pushed her up into the sky."
    Priya, your experiment is headed the right way.

  3. Dear Priya,
    It is truly amazing what that child can come up with. I like the illustration very much.
    It is a great feeling to be the grandfather of Raghav.
