What is a summary of Sudha Murty's 'How I taught my grandmother to read'?
The story, "How I Taught My Grandmother To Read", talks about a girl who stayed with her grandparents in Karnataka. The girl used to read the story to her grandmother every week, as her grandmother didn't know how to read or write. One day, the girl left the house to attend a marriage somewhere else. The magazine arrived while the girl was gone and the grandmother, unable to read the content, rubbed her hands on the pictures, feeling hopeless and dependent on her granddaughter. Once the girl came back, her grandmother insisted the her granddaughter to teach her how to read and write. Within a very short period of time, the grandmother was successful and able to read and write. Her greatest sense of satisfaction began when she started reading the novel of the story Kashi Yatre on her own.
