Dear Kirti,How are you? How are Uncle and Aunt?My friends and I did something wonderful yesterday. Haseena found a dragon crying. A wicked man, called Mingaling had locked his nose by magic. The dragon could not snort fire and smoke. We tried to help him by putting lighted pipes in his nose. But Mingaling tried to stop us. So we jumped on him and tickled him hard. We made him take his magic back and unlock the dragon’s nose. The dragon was happy and so were we.From this I got to know that there is nothing we cannot do if we do it together.When are you visiting me? You must meet our new friend, Dino the dragon.
