Unity is strength

Once upon a time, there lived a boy named Nikhil. He never made any friends because he thought that he was happy on his own.

One day, his teacher gave the class group assignments in all subjects. Everyone made groups with their friends, but no one took Nikhil because no one knew him well. He was sad and angry at the same time.

"I will do the work myself," he muttered to himself and started working on his assignments. But he was unable to do all the work by himself. Even what he managed to do was not good.

The children in the groups, because of their teamwork, had done excellent work and everyone, except Nikhil, got an 'A'. Nikhil got a 'D' for his efforts.

He learnt a great lesson that unity is strength.
