Why it matters
This is a piece of creative fiction or a personal anecdote, serving as entertainment rather than news.
I t was a memorable summer. Not because of the things we did, or the holidays we did not go on but because of a clock. It was not an ordinary clock. First of all, it was tall… taller than Appa. Its dark wooden case gleamed in the sunlight, and a brass pendulum swung gently inside. On the top was a beautiful carved rhododendron. It was a grandfather clock.
