Dear Ms. Smith,
I recently learned that you are a local neighbour of our school, St. Mary's Elementary School on Main Street, where I am the third grade teacher. Perhaps you have noticed our bright pink mural in the neighbourhood? It gets quite the attention from people passing by.
My third-graders are huge fans of your work. Your books are so clever and funny. In fact, we just completed reading "Edward in the Garden" as a class. The children were delirious with laughter when Edward fought the rabbit off his carrots. Many of them were chuckling on the floor!
In the coming weeks the children will learn to write their own short stories, and as inspiration to them my principal and I would like to invite you as a guest speaker to our class. Would you be interested in such an opportunity? It would require a 20 minute talk with our class of twenty-five children, followed by some questions at the end.
Your presence would motive and guide them greatly. The children would be so thrilled to hear from an author they know and love, and it would be an honour to host you.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Applebee
