Dear Mama and Papa,
I’m learning so much here at school with the boys. They have more books here than I have ever seen! I’ve already read two of them with my teacher. She’s the one whose helping me write this letter to you. One day I’ll be able to write all by myself. Mr Warner is in charge of this whole school. He says when I go home, I can borrow a book from the bookshelf. Then when i’m home, I’ll read it to you! Maybe I can teach you how to read and write just like how they teach me at school. I wish I could stay here longer, but I’ll be back home in a few days to help make the soap and cook the meals. At least I’ll have a book to read between chores! Well, it’s time for me to go eat some dinner. CC is saving me a seat next to him.
See you soon!
