उत्तर

My Favourite Place

I have an uncle in Delhi. I go there during the summer vacation. My uncle’s house has a small but beautiful library. It has many books. Among them are the books specially meant for children. There are interesting story books. Whenever I go to my uncle’s, my afternoons are invariably spent in this library. I have already read quite a few books such as Gulliver’s Tales and Farm House. I like this place most because I love reading books.
