What Shall I Wear Today?Author: Natasha SharmaIllustrator: Tanvi Bhat

Do you get the feeling sometimes that none of your clothes are just right? Ido!

2/10

The shirt buttons trouble me.The pants feel too tight on me.

3/10

The lehenga seems to trip me.The choli does not fit me.

4/10

My salwar keeps slipping.The golden zari keeps itching.

5/10

The churidaar pulls and tugs everywhere.Nothing perfect seems to be there.

6/10

This frock is too bright.Brother's T-shirt? What a funny sight!

7/10

Papa's kurta is rather long.Mummy's sari is wrapped all wrong.Some things are well out of my reach. Oh, it really makes me want to screech!

8/10

These clothes seem to say, ‘We shall trouble you all day.’But I have made up my mind today...

9/10

... to mix and match these clothes in a way that I have my very own style today!
