A House Is Not a Home
In this Class 9 English chapter, the narrator recalls how a devastating house fire leaves him distressed, lonely, and uncomfortable at his new school. When his beloved cat goes missing, his sense of loss deepens, but the kindness of classmates and the cat’s return help him recover. Students explore themes of grief, friendship, empathy, resilience, and the idea that a true home is created by love, care, and belonging—not merely by walls.
