LETTERS FROM SCHOOL CHILDREN, 2

Dear Mrs. Dykes,
Thank you for those awesome tips. My favorites were the sayings, "What if?" and "Believe in yourself." I want to be just like you when I grow up. I really got to thinking when you told us The Three E's (Kristy, here: why I write). I remember them in my head: entertain, enlighten, and encourage. I hope to see you again, Janey

Dear Mrs. Dykes,
What made you persistent to keep rewriting your rejected stories?
Sincerely, Melinda

Dear Mrs. Dykes,
That was cool, when you talked about if you have a dream, you can fulfill that dream. Your friend, Nick

Dear Mrs. Dykes,
Do you predict that you are going to be a famous writer? How do you feel when you write? I hope you are going to be a famous writer. You are the best writer in the whole wide world. Good luck. Keep up the good work.
A young writer, Jason
