Answer:
1. Kezia tried hard to please her father, after he returned to home to taken care of her father’s books. But she gonna end up by irritating her father by stuttering while she was speaking. Also, when grandma asks kezia that neaxt week is her father’s birthday then she decided to surprise him with a nice gift. She laboriously stitched three sides of a yellow silk cloth to make him a pin cushion. Unknowingly she stuffed the cushion with her father’s great speech. This made her father very angry or even more and she got a beating with the ruler.
2. Mr. macdonalds was a gentle & a loving father who spent quality time with his children. Kezia had seen him play with his young five children. The father had the baby mao on his shoulders; two girls were hanging on to his coats pockets ran around the flowers beds and was shaking with laughter. All of them laughed the very whole time. It was the time when she decided that there were various kinds of fathers. Kezia’s father was very different from Mr. macdonald. Her father was very strict and firm. He wanted kezia to be able to make correct decisions and used to taught her lessons. His ways were not so good but he loves and cares for his daughter very much. He worked very hard so as to become a successful man and to be able to fulfil his family’s requirements and was too tired to play with Kezia like mr. macdonald played with his children.
3. When Kezia had a dreadful nightmare, she was awakens to see her father besides her. He took her to his room and tucked her into his bed. He also asked her to rub her feet against his foot to keep them warm. Her father was very tired and fell asleep before her. This was when Kezia realized that he too was a human. Even though he is big like a giant and had no one to look after him. He also required some sympathy & love. Finally, Kezia realized that her father had a big heart & loved her too much & worked so hard for her.
