Text from The Race (A Beginner Reader)

Four friends want to have a race with their toys.
Veen has a green car.
Meena has a yellow auto.
Sanju has a red bus.
Manju has a blue lorry. Ready 1-2-3, GO! Here comes Lucky. Ha-ha, Lucky has joined the race. Look, look! Lucky is the fastest of them all. Lucky wins the race.

The Race is brought to us in creative commons by Pratham’s Storyweaver platform and is available to share
