Summary/
Central idea
Children
are happy because they are nearer to nature than the grown ups. They can see
small things in nature and enjoy them; but at times of difficulty They wish
they were grown ups.
Or
Being
a child has its own advantages. Children see many things in nature differently
because of their small height. It is only at difficult times they feel that
they should be tall like grown ups.
