FLAMINGO BOOK REVIEW

-
                                                   About the book Flamingo    

                        The textbook of English flamingo was introduced in class 12th by SCERT in 2019. Many of the English teachers find it difficult to teach this book's lesson. They find it uninteresting and lengthy. But if we understand the content of the book, then we will feel pleasure to read and teach this book. The whole book can be divided in four sections.
                        
                              Three short stories- The Last Lesson, The Rattrap and Going places are the part of the fiction which describes the different aspects of human nature. The first chapter of the book 'The Last Lesson' deals with the love for his language by a teacher who was giving his last lecture in the school. The readers often get confused about the title of the story. But the content of the lesson justifies with the title. The Rattrap is about the human goodness in trying circumstances. 'Going Places' explores the dreams of the adolescent and reality.
                            
                             There are two biographical pieces. The lesson 'Indigo' shows Gandhiji in action. In the lesson Gandhiji himself admits that the Champaran episode was the turning point in his political career. Anis Jung's 'Lost spring' deals with the poverty of a street children whose family was migrated from Bangladesh in search of livelihood.
                             
                              The autobiographical piece 'Deep Water' shows the overcoming the fear of water by the author William Douglas. 'Poets and Pancakes' deals with the writer Ashokamitran's experiance that he had in Gemini Studios in some lighter vein.
                            
                              'The interview' introduce pupils to the subject of media writing.
                         
                   So understand the whole book thoroughly and enjoy reading and teaching.
