Summay of Lesson: The lost Child
Answers
Answer:
The story is about a child and his parents who are going to a fair. On their way to the fair, the child sees a toy shop and asks his parents to buy him a toy, but, his father stared at him and he understood the father's silent "No". Then to divert his mind, his mother called him up to the mustard field. The Child saw various things on his way to the fair such as insects, doves, butterflies and so on. In the fair also, he sees various things such as sweets and balloons, but he didn't request his parents because he knew what would be the reply. So, he mumered and moved on. On reaching the roundabout, he couldn't resist himself and made a bold request saying that he wants to go on the roundabout and when he turned back for the reply, his mother and father were not there!!! He was confused and ran here and there. He ran to the shrine and fell down. It was then that the kind man came to help him. He offered him everything that he wanted earlier but the child refused and cried for his parents. This shows that the child's parent's were the center an the meaning of his life and all the luxuries in the world were meaningless to him without his parents.
The writer has kept the story ending open, and we may assume that the child met his parents later, as he was not the only one who was finding his parents, but, his parents were also finding him.
hope this helps!

The Lost Child is a story about a small boy who gets lost in a fair. The child visits the fair with his parents and sees a lot of flies, flowers, etc. on the way. He wanted them but he knew that his parents won't buy him any. Every time he sees a new thing, he stops there to see and lags behind. Mustard fields, shops with beautiful toys, sweets made him more curious. He lags behind when he saw a ride and shouted that I want a ride on that. When he didn't get an answer,he turned back and saw that his parents were not there. He felt very insecure and started crying. A man saw his insecurity and helped him. The child was crying and crying and crying.The man offered him the sweets, the flowers which he wanted before. But the child refused. He only wanted his parents. The story remains inconclusive and the author has left the readers to conclude it.
