                          New life is about to happen

It was an uneventful day, to be honest like many others ones in his worthless life.  His face was devoid of any smile or humour. As usual he heard a lot of indescribable sounds and interesting conversations, but everything was inexplicable for him as he had been lying on the top shelf in a dark bookcase for many years and couldn’t observe the life of the people as earlier.

His name was English dictionary. It is said that things with such names are very important in the world and have a large following but his life seemed to be completely pointless. So, under the circumstances he kept himself occupied with different thoughts all the time but couldn’t find out any explanation. Dictionary always has a wonderful relationship with his owner. He was excelled in his job and he was quietly confident about it. He was a reputable book. But what was the origin of their divorce? Maybe it was his too old red cover or torn pages were very noticeable. He didn’t know but he still reflected on that problem all the time.

Dictionary and his owner had had a lot of extremely interesting and eventful trips to many wonderful countries, not counting that in some of them they were more than one times. His owner had an inquiring mind and always asked the dictionary a favour and the latter always tried to simplify the languages of foreigners.

One day when his owner left to New Zealand he had forgotten his small pocket dictionary at home. The owner had been so confused and defenceless during that trip that behavior of the small dictionary seemed to be unforgivable. How he could stay at home? The whole incident reflected badly on everyone involved.

It also was another funny story when his owner mistook English dictionary to his friend-novel “Three comrades”. That strange situation needed careful handling.

The red dictionary remembered a lot of other interesting stories and could talk about their earlier fascinating life non-stop but his thoughts were suddenly interrupted. A little girl had brought comparable Book to English dictionary. Her green cover was so pretty and pages so white that red-covered Book was miserable in comparison. Both of them had been trying to make a conversation and soon were succeed in it. German dictionary was quite interesting book and had told a lot of unforgettable stories about his life. He hadn’t visited many incredible countries, hadn’t seen many strange foreigners, hadn’t had the only owner but without it his life was quite amazing. German dictionary had been living in the bookshop and anticipating some changes all the time. He had seen hundreds of new faces and heard thousands of different stories from many customers but it wasn’t considerable difficulty for him to absorb all the information as he always was curious about the world outside. Early in the morning a young pretty woman bought him and brought to this bookcase. 

Green-covered book didn’t know what would happen to them but assured English dictionary that their life fraught with difficulties soon change. Today on the way home he heard that the daughter of the pretty woman eight-year-old girl is going to study foreign languages. English dictionary counted himself lucky. He knew that adventures life was about to happen.

  1. To tell the truth, you made it clear that dictionaries are very useful in our lives. You told the story about English dictionary which always travelled with its owner and had a lot of eventful trips. One day when the man forgot his dictionary at home he was really defenceless and devastated. I believe that this mean that we should have a clear insight into that dictionaries are important tools of education. That’s why, we must value them due to the fact that they are really helpful in our studying.
