Question
Why did William and the other children bully Margot?
Advertisements
Solution
Margot was the only girl who came to the planet Venus from the earth just five years ago. She was the only one to describe the sun as she had witnessed it while she was on earth. She told the other children how the sun was like a penny or a fire in the stove. The boy, William, and the other children were unable to believe her. So they started bullying Margot and treated her badly.
