Young World

Young World is the most popular magazine for children in Pakistan. Students read this to improve their reading and writing skills. Moreover, it is not just kids who are interested in the magazine, in fact, teachers also recommend YW to their students to read and enhance their writing and reading skills.

I appreciate the efforts of the YW team and request them to keep publishing this wonderful magazine for the generations to come.

Ella babysits

This is with reference to the story “Ella babysits” by Rida Panjwani (YW, February 3). The story depicted how one can face trouble at the expense of a little enjoyment.

In our daily life, we come across many things which seem to give us temporary pleasure, but it is on us to observe which ones give true happiness and which ones do not.

Keeping the consequences in mind, we should not risk our life for temporary happiness.

Getting started with writing

This is with reference to the article “Getting started with writing” by Sadia Maqsood (YW, February 3). The article was quite informative as it gave readers many tips about writing.

Moreover, the language was simple and not difficult like in books, so the article proved very helpful.

The article “Getting started with writing” by Sadia Maqsood was a wonderful piece. It rightly said that grab a pen and pour your feeling out.

Another thing worth mentioning is that we usually don’t take writing seriously and write wherever we want; however, to concentrate and write properly, one needs a quiet place.

Restructure your life

This is with reference to the article “Restructure your life” by QaisarRizwan Abbasi (YW, February 10). It was a beautiful article focussing on the most important phase of life — youth.

Youngsters are enthusiastic and resilient because they have the energy and passion to make their tomorrow better by being positive and making every moment count.

Time wasted on trivial or unproductive things will never comeback. So youngsters need to improve their personality by adopting the positive traits.
