This and That
Author: Radha HS
Illustrator: Ruchi Shah
This is Bekku.
And that is me in the mirror.
This is what I love to do
... and this is what Bekku likes to do.
This is Bekku's favorite place, and that is mine.
When Bekku sees a mouse she runs after it.
But if I see a mouse, I run from it.
Then when I run after my beeping car, Bekku scoots out through the
door ajar.
When mamma gives us milk, we both go SLURP, SLURP.
Then follow our loud BURP, BURPS!
We like different things - that is very plain.
Our common love for milk, this will always remain!
