Question
In the fair he wants many things. What are they? Why does he move on without waiting for an answer?
Answer
In the fair, the child wants burfi (sweets), a garland of gulmohar, multi-colored balloons, to hear the snake charmer’s music, and a ride on the roundabout.
He moves on without waiting for an answer because he knows his parents will refuse his requests. He knows they would call him greedy for the sweets, say the flowers are cheap, or tell him he is too old to play with balloons.
