8 Acknowledgements p Writing this book was a journey, which wouldn t have been completed without the love, support and encouragement of some of the most special people in my life. First, I would like to thank my Mother, for constantly nudging me to make good use of my skills. It was her dream of becoming a writer which triggered me to become one. I would like to thank my Father for believing in me. Thanks Mom and Dad, I Love You. I would also like to thank my sister, Juveriah, and my soul sister, Mariya, for bearing with me throughout and giving me their valuable feedback. I would like to express my sincere thanks to all my teachers, especially my English teacher, Sir Bhattacharya, who made learning easy and fun, which peaked my interest and made me fall in love with the language. I would also like to thank those few people, who became my inspiration. vii

9 And at last a special thanks to the team of Educreation Publications for their patience, support and guidance throughout the process. viii
