Hey friend here is your answer .............

'My Childhood' is an extract from Abdul Kalam book Wings of Fire. It is about Kalam's childhood .

Summary-

The narrator, Abdul Kalam, was born at Rameswaram in 1931. His parents were neither educated nor rich. However they were generous .He had three sisters and one brother .All of them lived in the large pucca ancestral House situated on the Mosque Street in Rameswaram.The Second World War broke out in 1939. The narrator was only 8 years old .In his childhood he had three close friends- Ramanadha Sastry,Aravindam and Sivaprakashan. Once when he was in fifth standard, a new teacher asked him not to sit in the front row along with the high caste Brahmin boys. Abdul found Ramanadha Sastry weeping as he went to the last row. This made a lasting impression on Abdul.
Abdul was also greatly influenced by his science teacher, Sivasubramania Iyer. He learnt the lesson of breaking social barriers from him. Iyer invited him to his home for a meal. His wife was an orthodox Brahmin who refused to serve food to a muslim boy in her so called ritually pure kitchen. Iyer served him with his own hand and sat down beside him to eat his meal. He convinced his wife to serve meal with her own hands and thus was successful in changing the conservative attitude of his wife.
For higher education he sought permission from his father to leave Rameswaram and study at the district headquartes in Ramanathapuram. His father agreed to do so.His father referred to Khalil Gibran to console her with the idea her children were not hers but life longing for itself .He asked her not to impose her will on her children .
