                 them in this chapter.


                 Mouse


                 A mouse is an important part of a computer. It is a pointing device. The mouse

                 helps us to tell the computer what to do.

                 The other uses of a mouse are:
                   to draw pictures.

                   to play games.

                   to give commands to the computer.

                   to point different things with the help of a pointer

                   on the screen.

                 A mouse can have two or three buttons.

                 This mouse has two buttons and
                 a scroll wheel. This is called a

                 scroll mouse.





                 Mouse Pad

                 A mouse pad is a small surface on which

                 a mouse is placed. A mouse pad helps in
                 the smooth movement of a mouse.
