I really enjoyed you as our coach last year! I am writing to you because Molly and I really want to help you coach the younger kids. It doesn't really matter what grade. We can sort of do what Kaitlin, Shelby, and Michelle did last year for our team. We also want to help with the concession stand. I don't know if you can help us with that though.

First, we would be good helpers because of our age. We will be eleven and twelve at the time. We have had experience. Our age is good because now we are more mature. We also aren't too old to help you!

Another reason is we know you really well. Well, me, I've known you for practically all my life, but I'm not sure about Molly! I'm sure you guys have for a while! Molly just told me she has known you for her practically whole life too, so that's good! You're really funny and fun to hang out with. (I'm not joking!)

Also, helping you would be good exercise. Its way better then sitting on the couch and eating potato chips all day! (Not that we would do that or anything!) We also need the fresh air. Hopefully it won't be too hot outside!

Finally, we just really want to help you! We would be good helpers because of our age, we know you really well, and its good exercise. Plus, it won't be as much work for you! Thank you for reading this letter. Just remember, you were the best coach we have ever had!

Sincerely,

 A****

WOW! ! ! ! A****,A****,A****! There is lots to discribe A****!Well,her hair is about twelve inches long,(We mesured it), and a dirty-blondish color. She is about five feet. She isn't really a girly-girl, she is more sporty. I think it is funny, she is shy around grown-ups, but then you should see her around her friends, she's totally the opposite! She likes to smile and she is really funny. She is also amazingly smart. A**** is nice to EVERYONE! She is an outstanding friend!

                                                Esperenza Rising book review              

  Have you ever read the book Esperenza Rising?  If you haven't you should! It's marvelous! The main character, Esperenza, starts off as a rich child. But then, tragedy, after tragedy, her life starts falling apart. Through the whole story Esperenza always has hope. She never gives up! If you like sad stories that still have hope, READ THIS!!! It's good for adults, not just kids! I hope you enjoy this story!!

The Explores Game        

       During this summer ****** invited me to a Sioux City Explores baseball game.  It was very fun! We went because her dad got six free tickets to the game. There were lots of fun activities and songs. I will try to name them all in the next paragraph!

       There were so many fun activities. When the coach had to talk to the team, they would say on the microphone "Houston we have a problem"! Everyone would laugh! If you were a kid you got to go down to the field and do the chicken dance! If the ball flew over the bleachers, it would make a whistling sound and then a sound like a car wind shield cracked!

       There mascot was a black dog. He would always walk around and give people high fives. He wore a red jersey. He threw out candy to the loudest people!      

       There was a fly ball right over ******'s head! If she stood up she would've caught it! The people behind us did. It was a little girl and her dad. Number seven hit it.

I hope you enjoyed me story. Sorry I couldn't remember all the songs. I wish ****** would've caught that ball! Well bye-bye for now!

I alwas am in the reading zone when I read a goog book. I like being in the zone because it feels like your actually there. You can't hear people when your in the zone.You don't care whats happening around you.
