Chapter at a glance
Chanda Mama starts counting. The Moon is round as a circle on some nights and different
on other nights. One night he begins to count the stars: 1, 2, 3, 10, 21, 45 … 999.
He falls asleep. Counting so many stars makes him yawn. He falls asleep. The Sun peeps
out from behind the clouds and it becomes morning.
He forgets the count. Chanda Mama wakes up in the evening and starts again. But he
cannot remember where he had stopped. This happens night after night.
He cries. One night he is very upset. He cries, “I am never able to complete my counting.ˮ
The Sun sees his tears and smiles.
The Sunʼs answer. The Sun says the number of stars in the sky is the same as the number
of lovely children. Nobody can count either of them.
The rest of the chapter. Let us think has questions on the story. Let us learn teaches ‘hereʼ
and ‘thereʼ. Let us listen is a sorting table. Let us write is a full-moon conversation, and Let
us do is a wind chime project.
