Additional Information :
When in the instruction given is to change the mode of narration , it effectively means to change from direct to indirect speech and vise versa.
Here , the given sentence is in direct speech and I changed it to indirect.
A few things to remember while changing :
In either ways , the original meaning of the sentence should not be lost .
It should grammatically sound accurate.
You should not be adding any extra details unless absolutely necessary ( as to maintain the continuity) .
Like here, " ... he would pull his tooth " ; it should be clear who is being referred to as he and his distinctively .
