A journalist bear cannot find any breaking-news tale and feels unworthy, until a Singing Sardarji challenges his worries with songs about how different characters shape the world. The narrative blends humor, gentle debate, and imaginative character roles.","The Story of Stories  \nAuthor: Roopa Pai Illustrator: Prashant Miranda  \nEnglish Story Book  \nThe Story of Stories  \nAuthor: Roopa Pai Illustrator: Prashant Miranda Reformatted for Bloom By: Cara Ediger Pratham Books  \nEnglish  \nThe Story of Stories Author: Roopa Pai  \nIllustrator: Prashant Miranda  \nCopyright © 2015, Pratham Books  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.

Whales danced in the waves, singing to each other. Sea lions, their smooth brown bodies glistening in the sun, played peek-a-boo with the noisy seagulls, barking and scolding. Every creature in the Forest was happy, happy, happy.  \nExcuse me! you say. That can’t be true. There’s NEVER a time when EVERY creature ANYwhere is happy, happy, happy.  \nHmmm. Maybe you’re right. Maybe not EVERY creature was happy. This journalist bear, for instance.  \nIn this picture, Bear is trying to smile, but he has a great sorrow. He simply cannot find a ‘BREAKING NEWS’ story. He even sent Bird to look-because Bird moves faster and sees better-but Bird came back with nothing.  \n‘BREAKING NEWS’ stories are about anger and fear and hate and greed, and there was none of that in the Forest. Everything was happy, happy, happy. A journalist bear without a ‘BREAKING NEWS’ story doesn’t deserve to be a journalist bear, thought Bear sadly to himself. He should be a Waiter Bear, or a Sweeper Bear, or a Telephone Voice Bear, saying,‘Please check the number you have dialled’, or ‘Kindly wait-you are in a queue’.  \nHe packed his things and started walking to the bus-stop, when Singing Sardarji popped out from behind a tree.  \n“Arrey oh Journalist Bear!” said Sardarji.“Going somewhere?”  \n“Don’t call me that or I will cry,” said Bear, and told Sardarji he was leaving to become a Telephone Voice Bear.  \n“Don’t be such a silly bear, Bear!” scolded Sardarji. He pulled out a guitar and began to sing.  \n“If Tweety birds stop tweeting, and Hooty Owls stop hooting,  \nthe world would be a sad playyyy-ce, don’t you see?”  \n“Don’t you seeeeeeee?” sang the Tweety Birds and the Hooty Owls.  \n“If Singing Sardarjis don’t, and Journalist Bears won’t, the world would be a bad playyyyy-ce, don’t you see?”sang Sardarji.","cbCaipcOJo35Vaek","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipcOJo35Vaek","pdf",29444488,15,"English","en",105,"# The Forest’s Happy World\n## The Journalist Bear’s Dilemma\n## Singing Sardarji and the Songs","[{\"question\":\"Why does the journalist bear feel sad in the Forest?\",\"answer\":\"He cannot find a “BREAKING NEWS” story, since the Forest has no anger, fear, hate, or greed.
