Dearest Head Teacher,

I was told by Mr. Jones that if I was late for class again he’d be very unhappy. I was late again today for a reason.

I wanted some cereal and then I found out that my brother had eaten it all. I had to go to the shops to purchase some more. I told my brother off for eating all the breakfast. My mother got quite up set when I did. My mother said I had to eat something.

We could have been on time once I had finished. But my sibling brother couldn’t find his booklet. We had to be quick, for we had to look through the whole house for the booklet. Of course it was under the settee because he always drops these things on the floor.

Once we finished searching and it had been found, we were well late. We walked outside and got into the vehicle. As normal our engine didn’t want to run. So now we were surely going to be late.

Our neighbour saw that we were having car problems and so he offered us a ride in his vehicle. The traffic was bigger than usual so that made us even later than normal too. Our neighbour couldn’t wait anymore so he stopped at the side and we had to go by foot the rest of the trip. Which took us 5 minutes.

My mother went with my brother to explain to the teacher why he was late and she told me that I was old enough to do it myself. Which I am not.

Sincerely Yours Shari Hooper, Mrs. Hooper and Mr. Hooper.

P.S don’t get me in trouble s.v.p this time. Now my guardians explained why I was late.
