Dear
Student,
I’m currently reading Green Eggs and Ham by
Dr. Suess. In
the book Sam keeps trying to get some guy to eat green eggs and ham. I know
just how the guy feels in this story because I’ve been around annoying people
like Sam.
Sam is just like my little cousin, Billy. Whenever I’m around Billy, he asks me a
million questions, like “What are you doing?”, “Is it fun?”, ”
Who taught you how to do that?” I start off answering his stupid questions, but
after the twelfth question I just want to scream. If I tell him that he needs to quit asking me
questions he says, “Why?” which is another question,
and it starts all over again! It’s really annoying!
Your adorable teacher,
Ms Tirpak
