The first gift I received was a book named 1001 amazing facts for Children. I won the proficiency prize for class 2 and my father presented the book to me when he came back from his office.  I was thrilled and quickly opened the gift box. The book was full of colorful images and was very attractive. My father told me that there are some amazing things in this book and you should try to read two pages every day. Since then I used to read couple of pages, and sometimes more every day. The book has so many interesting facts about space and planets, rain forests, wild animals, about our body etc. Even though I received many gifts since then, that book was something special for me. I always keep that book near to my study table.  I still remember that the best part of that day was the special dessert prepared by my mother.
