Good morning, everyone. My name is Kabir, and I study in Class 4.

I live with my parents and my grandmother. I love cricket, and on Sundays I play with my cousins in the park. My favourite subject is maths because solving puzzles makes me happy.

I am a little shy, but I am learning to speak up, just like I am doing today. When I grow up, I want to be a doctor and help people. Thank you.
