Dear Ms. Denise,

I am writing a letter to you because I really want to get a class pet. Only the most
wonderful teacher would be that kind to let us get a pet.

I really want a pet and if you allow the class to get a pet you will start to notice
how responsible we are. We will have a happy shelter for the pet because it has
been in the cage for a long time in the pet store and if we get one we can let it out
sometimes. We will all have fun with the pet because some of us don’t have a pet
and we really want one, so if we have one in class we don’t need to annoy our
parents by telling them every day that we want a pet. I promise we will all help
each other to take care of the pet. But on the other hand it might eat erasers or
die and no one will be there afterschool so it will be alone, and who’s going to pay
the money? But still there are some solutions to these problems; someone can take
it home so it’s not lonely. For the money we all can donate some money, maybe we
can organize a bake sale or something, and for the problem of it might eat an
eraser, we can keep an eye on it when we let it out. Another good thing about it
would be we could inquire into their life cycles. And this is a good deed.

I hope you will agree with our dream.

Please, we really want a pet. We will be very responsible with it. And we will take
care of it.

Yours Sincerely,

Nalinee
