Mrs Verma had triplets, but they were very different from each other. Yash and
Yashika looked alike, but Yash was lighter than Yashika and shorter. He was also
more athletic. Manik was the smallest of the three. He was also the cleverest and
won the most prizes at school. Yashika was a faster runner than Manik, but slower

than Yash. However, the triplets were alike in one way – they were the best
readers in school. They borrowed more books from the library than anyone else in
their class. This made their mother the happiest parent in the town.
