Dholu Ram Gadbad Singh is a roly-poly boy of eight years of age. He is not only chubby but quite strong too. Also, he is very intelligent. He is good in studies and in sports. Therefore, everyone likes him in his school, at home and in the neighborhood.
Being intelligent, he uses his brain very well and comes out with great ideas when there is any problem. While others keep thinking, he comes out with brilliant solutions to the problems quickly.
This summer when the schools closed for the vacation, his friend Golu invited him to his house. Golu said, "Dholu, you are a great friend of mine. Come to my house for a day and also sleep at my home in the night. Next day, you can return to your house. We will spend time together and play. We will have some fun."
Golu told his mom and dad that he was inviting Dholu Ram home for a day. Dholu told this to his mom and dad. They gave him the permission. Dholu packed his bag with a change of clothes and took his tooth brush and tooth paste. He also carried a ball in his bag. He did not forget to keep with him a chocolate that he wanted to give Golu as his gift.
Dholu's mom and dad dropped Dholu at Golu's house. They did not need to tell Dholu to behave properly at Golu's place because Dholu always behaved nicely without being told. So, they waved Dholu 'bye' and went away. Golu and his mom and dad were very happy to receive Dholu.
Golu and Dholu played the ball on the lawns. They also chased the squirrels and the colorful birds. After they finished their game, they washed their hands with soap and went to the dining room. Golu's mummy had made very nice dinner for them and they ate it all. They saw some cartoons on the television and then went to sleep in Golu's bedroom.
They both woke up fresh early in the morning. After brushing the teeth, finishing their morning program and taking shower, they went in their kitchen garden. Golu showed the plants of tomatoes and beans. In the kitchen garden they were growing the potatoes and carrots also. The potatoes and carrots were below the earth and outside they could see their green leaves. And then they saw that Golu's mom and dad were busy pulling out a carrot from beneath earth. They wanted to make carrot pudding for Dholu for the breakfast.
First, Golu's dad alone was pulling the carrot out with lots of force. But the carrot did not come out. So, he requested Golu's mom to hold him from behind and pull him and he pulled the carrot. But the carrot was big, a giant size carrot and quite deep inside the earth. It did not come out. Their dog Rex was watching all this with keen interest. He is a very helpful dog with lots of golden fur. He ran to them and held the mom and now Rex was pulling mom, mom was pulling dad and dad was pulling the carrot. Yet, carrot did not come out. Golu thought that if he also joined his mom and dad in pulling, the carrot would come out. So he went behind Rex, the dog and pulled him. Now, Golu was pulling Rex, Rex was pulling mom, mom was pulling dad and dad was pulling the carrot. Sigh!! The carrot still could not be pulled out. They were all sweating and got tired. But they had to take the carrot out for making carrot pudding for Dholu.
As you know Dholu is a very strong boy. He told, "May I join you in pulling out the carrot? But, I will be in the front and will use all my strength. All of you get behind me and pull me. I am sure that we will be able to pull out the carrot this way."
Golu's mom and dad were hesitating to ask Dholu to do the work as he was their guest. But Golu knew about Dholu's strength and he persuaded his mom and dad to allow Dholu in pulling the carrot out.
So, now, Dholu Ram Gadbad Singh was right in the front pulling the carrot. In turn dad was pulling him and mom was pulling dad and Rex was pulling mom and Golu was pulling Rex. And together all of them applied great force. And lo!! The carrot came out of the earth. Every one cheered merrily. They understood that the job that could not be done by a single person could be done when many people did it as a team together and it required a strong leader like Dholu.
Dholu and Golu washed the carrot thoroughly with water and gave it to Golu's mom. She prepared carrot pudding and all of them had a hearty breakfast.
After the breakfast, Golu, his mom and dad and Rex dropped Dholu Ram at his house in their car. They bade each other good bye.
