अनुवाद – सर्कल कहने लगा “मैं सबसे सर्वश्रेष्ठ हूँ”। मैं गोल और सुंदर हूँ। मेरा कोई भी तीखा किनारा नहीं होता। बच्चे मुझसे गोल हँसता हुआ चेहरा बनाते हैं और बहुत सारी सुंदर चीजे बनाते हैं।

3. The other shapes refused to agree with the circle. Square then said, “I am the best! I have four sides and all of them are equal in size. Children eat many sweets which are square in shape. I look very beautiful and so I am the best.”

अनुवाद – बाकी सभी आकारों ने अस्वीकार किया सर्कल की बातों को और स्क्वायर ने कहा “मैं सर्वश्रेष्ठ हूँ” मेरी चार कोने हैं और सभी बराबर हैं। बच्चे मेरे आकार की मिठाईयाँ खाते हैं। मैं सबसे सुंदर हूँ, “मैं सर्वश्रेष्ठ हूँ”।

Children enjoy biscuits and chocolates in rectangle shape. They also use so many things in my shape. I am the best!” said the rectangle.

अनुवाद – अपने बाकी तीनों दोस्तों को सुन रहा रेक्टेंगल हँसा “कोई भी मेरी बराबरी नहीं कर सकता” मेरे चार कोने हैं जिसमें से दो लंबे और दो छोटे हैं। मैं बहुत सुंदर हूँ बच्चों को मेरे आकार के बिस्कुट और चॉकलेट बहुत पसंद हैं। मैं ही सर्वश्रेष्ठ हूँ।

6. The friends could not decide who was the best among them. They decided to ask the first person they meet. After some time, they met a star. They stopped her and told her of their fight. They asked her to decide who was the best among them.

So, stop fighting. Together we all can create wonders.”
