Solution
Everything around me looked different. Men and women were so tiny. And children! They appeared as if they were big dots on the ground. All the houses were only one and a half feet high. The dishes in which these dwarf people ate were two or three inches in diameter. I had never had such experiences in my life. I was surprised to see them all. But equally happy to find that these dwarf people were so kind to me. They helped me go back home.
