Was it difficult for Maia to choose presents? (reading for the main idea)
Here we are!” said Maia, as she came into the toy shop. “Now, what will we choose? I want something for my sisters — six of them. Can you help me, please?”
“Certainly, madam,” said the salesperson.
“First — my eldest sister,” said Maia. “She’s very domestic. What about that little stove with the silver saucepans? Yes. And that broom. There is so much dust on the star, and she will love to sweep it up. Now for Taygete. She likes dancing. Don’t you think, Jane, a skipping-rope would be just the thing for her? Then there’s Alcyone. She’s difficult. She’s so quiet and serious. A book? What is this ‘Family — the Swiss-Robinsons’? I think she would like that. And if she doesn’t, she can look at the pictures. I know what Celano wants. A hoop. She’ll love that red and blue one. Now, there are only the two little ones left. Michael, what would you advise for Sterope?”
“What about a top?” said Michael.
“A top? What a good idea! She will love to watch it. And what do you think for Merope, the baby, Jane?”
“John and Barbara,” said Jane, “have rubber ducks!”
“Oh, Jane, how clever you are! A rubber duck for Merope, please, a blue one with yellow eyes. That’s right!”
