Why does gnaneshwar write books?



When you were in the school, did you ever wonder who wrote those entire text books, which we had to read whole year??? I did.
A very smart kid would directly go and ask his parents and get the correct answer immediately.
A happy go lucky kid would think, "what will I do even if I come to know who wrote these text books???" and just forgets about it.
A little confused and a little stupid kid like me would use their extra smart brain and come to a conclusion all by themselves.


It was the end of summer holidays and we were covering my text books with brown cover.
While doing that, I asked my dad the most stupid question.
"Dad, why does ganeshwar write these books??? He writes all these books that’s why we have to read them!!!! Else no problem at all.”


It's only later i realized that, gnaneshwar was not the author of any of my school text books. Gnaneshwar was the owner of the stationery shop opposite to my school where i used to buy all my text books.
I still think of this instance and laugh at myself, thinking how stupid I was in my childhood.
