According to a different source, this unit includes the stories "I Want to be Miss America" by J.ulia Alvarez and "About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia.
<u>"I Want to Be Miss America" by Ju.lia Alvarez:</u> Be happy with who you are.
In this story, the sisters are unhappy with the way they look, as they do not look like the models they see in beauty pageants. As they get older, even when the sisters are called beautiful, their self-esteem remains damaged. This shows the importance of accepting who you are.
<u>"About Russell" by Rita Williams-Garcia:</u> Illnesses affect people, but does not change who they are inside.
In this story, we learn about Russell, and about the difficulties he faced throughout his life due to mental illness. However, the author shows that, even though his illness affected Russell in many ways, he always remained the same person at heart, including being a loving brother.

My dear Sushma,
First, Happy Birthday once again.
I know you had invited me and had expected me to be there last night. But due to the sudden hospitalization of my father, I couldn't attend the party. And I am extremely sorry for missing your special day.
I hope you can understand my condition. I will make sure I make up to you. Let my father get well first and then I will be there to make up for my absence in any way possible.
I'm really sorry about missing the party. Hope you will forgive me.
Take care and I will see you soon.
Your loving friend
Ruchi.
