The things we take for granted
because we don’t know more; we grow up with them and we don’t even imagine they can be different;
Set in the year 2155 (2157 in some later versions), when children learn individually at home using
a mechanical teacher, the story tells of eleven-year-old Margie Jones, whose neighbor Tommy finds a real book. The book tells about a time when children learned by age group in large schools that were not merely designated rooms in private houses as in the year 2157. Margie and Tommy discuss what it must have been like to study together with a real person as a teacher, and though at first Margie is skeptical about the notion, by the end of the story she daydreams about what it must have been like and 'the fun they had'.

  The short story is a memory of traditional schools when
students still visited schools. There is the irony taht our studnets do not appreciate the possibility of visiting schools and having classmates. 
The story depicts the future vision of schools
and there is a comparison with the contemporary schools. 
The short story shows that schools do not provide only
education but relationships and cooperation with teachers and classmates can contribute to our personal development.

Family Ties and Roots
Sacrifice, Duty and Morality
This story mainly focuses on one family, although it spans a few generations and branches out
to other lives that are involved.  The ties that bind this family together are at times loose and disconnected or are wound so tightly, that it can, in extreme cases, be the bond that smothers. However, there are several other key players involved with the main family that are not “blood” related but adopt family member roles and, in some cases, become more “family” than blood relatives. Conversely, in the case of Nila, a family bond with her “acquired” daughter, Pari, is tenuous, suggesting that family connections cannot be forced, either. It is the strength of Pari’s connection with her estranged brother that haunts her life as she feels a strong void within her although she never really understands why. It is only in their reuniting near the end of the book, where their family story feels accomplished.
