Answer

Column 1
(Jahnavi’s Questions)		Column 2
(River’s Answers)
………. why the moon always comes from behind the hills?It goes down towards the sea. I’ve seen it—it always takes the same path, over the mountains and down to the sea, like me!
“Can I do something?”… little girls can do as much as little boys.
“What are ships?”Big boats, so big that they can take hundreds of people, and they sail along the sea with lights that shine all night.
Will they come here?No, they won’t. They’re too big. Chandu’s catamaran is fine for me. He can take you to see a ship someday.
