Subject: A new friend from Guatemala
Hi Ben! My name is Ana. I'm thirteen years old, and I'm from Guatemala. Our teacher says you're my new email friend. I'm so happy!
I live in a small house with my mom, my dad, and my little brother. My grandparents live next door. I have got a big family! My brother is six years old. He is very funny, but he is also very noisy!
I go to school from Monday to Friday. My favorite class is English. After school, I do my homework and I play with my pet. Now I can tell you a secret about my pet.
My pet is not a dog or a cat. It's a big green turtle! Its name is Pizza. It's slow, but it's very clever. Every morning, it waits for a piece of apple. I think it can read my mind.
That's all about me. Please tell me about yourself. Do you have a pet? What is your family like? Write soon! Your friend, Ana
P.S. Please send me a photo of your pet. Is it bigger than Pizza?
