This is the book I was looking for.

$\textbf{\underline{\underline{Explanation :-}}}$

Here, Pronoun :

• I
• He
• She

can be used as they agree to the verb 'was looking'.

We required a singular Personal Pronoun. 'You' is also a singular Personal Pronoun but 'were' is used after it as it's Plural form is also 'You'.

'I', 'He' and 'She' can be used as they are Singular Personal Pronouns.

$\textbf{\underline{\underline{Additional Information :-}}}$

A Pronoun is a word used in place of a noun or non- equivalent. Pronouns avoid repetition of nouns and make sentences a shorter.

Example :-

$\bf{\purple{Durga}}$ lives in the Kullu Valley. It is located in Himachal Pradesh. $\bf{\red{She}}$ has many cousins. $\bf{\red{They}}$ all live together in a large house.

The words highlighted are pronouns. The noun for which a pronoun stands is called its antecedent.

In the above example Durga is the antecedent of the pronoun 'she' and that the Kullu Valey the antecedent of 'It'.
