What was strange about the ‘book’? Why did Margie find it strange?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The pages of the ‘book’ were yellow and crinkly. It was awfully funny to read words that stood still, unlike moving on a screen. When Margie turned back to the previous page, the page had the same words on it, when she read it the first time. All these things were strange for Margie, as she used to read-only telebooks through the computer screen, without any knowledge of a real book.
