Hello. My name is Pearl. Professor Anser gave this to me. You all seem to lead very exciting lives. I hope that I will lead an exciting life.

Am I supposed to tell you what Fairy Tale I come from? I'm the Good Daughter from Diamonds and Toads. It was written by a man named Charles Perrault. I've looked up about him on the internet. He wrote quite a lot of fairy tales, including Little Red Riding Hood, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella. We're going to be doing sections on all literary genres next year. I can't wait to do the section on Fairy Tales, now. I think I'll get a very good grade on it.

I don't really know what else to say. This is like beginning a letter to a pen-pal in another state. I have a pen-pal in Washington. We are required to write to each other four times a year. I don't really enjoy it, but some of the other girls in my class have become very close with their assigned pen-pals.

In case you are interested, I am very interested in gymnastics. I have been doing them since I was very little and am working on moving up to become an Elite Gymnast.
Several of the girls that goes to Chelsea Piers with me are going to be going to the Olympic tryouts. I'm a few months too young, but that's fine. Right now I'm trying to perfect my front handspring with spread legs. I've gotten pretty good at doing the front handspring with closed legs, so I know that I will be able to manage this move soon.

Many of you do seem very nice. Professor Anser was very nice to me when he came to tell me why I keep throwing up all the was having all of these funny dreams. Edwina is also very kind. I will be very careful to make sure that my parents and brother and sister do not find this book. Does anyone have any good advice on where to hide this? I don't think they'd understand. It's not wrong to keep a secret like this from my parents, is it?
