Letter from a Dragon (age 7)Adventurous
Dear Kai, Greetings from the cave behind the waterfall! (You know the one — if you turn left at the big oak tree and keep walking until you hear thunder. That's not real thunder. That's me snoring.) My name is Ember, and I'm writing because I heard about your bravery. A little bird (literally — a sparrow named Gerald) told me that you tried out for the school play even though you were nervous. KAI. That is dragon-level courage! I've been alive for 400 years, and I still get nervous before I breathe fire in front of other dragons. Performing is scary. You doing it anyway? That's what makes you a hero. If you ever need backup courage, just close your eyes and imagine a dragon roaring behind you. That's me. I've always got your back. Fire and friendship, Ember the Dragon

Letter from a Family Pet (age 5)Silly & Fun
Dear Zoe, Woof woof! It's me, Buster! Your dog! I know, I know — you didn't think I could write. Surprise! I've been practicing at night when everyone is sleeping. (That's also when I eat the crumbs under the couch. Don't tell Mom.) I wanted to write because I have some things to say: 1. Thank you for sharing your snacks with me 2. I love when you rub my belly 3. That time you dressed me as a cowboy? Not my favorite. But I forgive you. 4. You're my best friend in the whole entire world Okay, I have to go now because I just heard a squirrel in the yard and I MUST investigate. Licks and tail wags, Buster P.S. — Please leave your socks on the floor. They make the best toys.
