Sam and the Secret Call Summary Class 5 English Gul Mohar

Summary

Sam and his family visit the same island every summer, staying in a small house with a fantastic view of the sea. One evening, they go to their favorite restaurant, 'Ocean,' where they hear about Armando, a man with a boat who can make dolphins come with a secret call. Sam is excited!

The next day, Sam and Armando head out to sea on a boat. Armando gives Sam a life jacket, and they drop the anchor. Armando does a special whistle, and dolphins appear! Sam tries but can't make the sound. Armando teaches him, and soon dolphins surround the boat.

Armando throws a fish, and a dolphin jumps to catch it. Sam asks to swim with them, and Armando agrees. Sam has an amazing time playing with the dolphins. When it's time to go back, a storm hits. Armando gets hurt, and Sam, feeling lonely, remembers the secret whistle Armando taught him. He whistles, and the dolphins come, pushing the boat to safety.

Armando thanks the dolphins, fixes the boat, and they head back. Sam is grateful and promises not to tell the secret. Armando is amazed at the dolphins' help. Later, the dolphins leave, and the adventure ends with Sam watching them in the sunset.
