Richard was an intelligent boy whose greatest dream was to have a toy rocket. Unfortunately, he had no money to buy one. One day, Richard found a toy box in the park. That box contained a defective paper rocket. Richard decided to repair it and started preparing his plans for the launch. For many days, he did everything to prepare for the rocket launch. It was not an easy job. He decorated his bedroom. Its walls looked like a galaxy in space. One day, Richard’s friend came to meet him. When his friend saw the spectacular sight of the bedroom, he offered a brand new rocket and took away the defective rocket with him. Richard was very happy to have a new rocket, but he missed his old defective rocket. He realised that it was much more fun playing with toys he had made himself. He requested his friend to return him his old rocket. The friend valued Richard’s efforts and brought his old rocket back.
