Dear Mrs. Matzat,
I really would love to talk to a real author because writing is one of my favorite subjects in school because sometimes the writing is so descriptive such as in Arrow hawk when Lola Schaefer said that the wound was seeping with blood. I don’t know about you but I think that how she said that was so descriptive that I could picture it in my head. I also want to go visit her because my second-grade teacher said that she wants to have a front-row seat when I go to the Academy Awards for my Novel.
Sincerely,
David

I want you to pick me because I’m a dedicated reader and really interested of reading Arrow Hawk. I’m a dedicated reader because I love books; I just read them a lot. Books are really fascinating and every time I read them it’s like watching a movie in your head!
I’m really interested in Arrow Hawk is that I feel just awful hearing the bird surviving in the woods with the arrow stuck in the thigh! I wonder if the bird is still ok after its surgery. I really like the book is that it’s true, great descriptive words, and beautiful illustrations. It was really cool for Lola Schaefer to write Arrow Hawk.
Thank you for reading my letter!

Dear Mrs. Matzat,
I would love to eat lunch with Lola, because I’m a giggantic fan of her book, Arrow Hawk. It inspired me to think about how we humans get to live in warm houses, get good food, and has a soft bed to sleep in, when wild animals can get killed just trying to find food or a house. I LOVE wild animals very much, and that is why when I grow up I’m going to be a zoo vet. I also think we might have a few things in common. Like she cares for animals, she uses great details in her stories, and from what I have heard about her she has a kind heart. It would be a DREAM COME TRUE if I could have the chance to spend my lunch time with her!
Love,
Windy #603

Dear Mrs. Matzat,
I have written this letter to tell you a few reasons why I should get to have lunch with Ms Lola Schaefer. It would be great if you picked me, and I would really enjoy it. I hope you will read my letter intently.
The first reason I should get to have lunch with Ms Lola Schaefer is that I am a young author, and I could probably get some advice. I’ve been wanting to meet a real author ever since I wrote my first book, Alone. It would help me become a better one, too. The advice she could give me would be helpful in many ways, for example, since I am young and don’t know much about what people want to read, she could give me some ideas. Also, I am stuck in a book I have been writing lately, and she could probably help me. That is one reason why I should get to meet Ms Lola Schaefer. She used such detail in her books I couldn’t compare. She could probably help me, and give me some tips. Another reason I should get to meet Lola is she could give me inspiration in many ways. I am inspired by many authors, but have never actually met one. This would keep me motivated. I would have someone to actually look up to. An author I can say I actually know.
I hope you will pick me to have lunch with Ms Lola Schaefer. I would absolutely love to meet her. I need some advice and inspiration. Thank you for using your time to read my letter.
Your inspiration needing student,
Rachel

Dear Mrs. Matzat,
I think I deserve the lunch with Lola Schaefer because I admire her books and I’ve always expected for this to never happen. Her description is outrageously wonderful. Having lunch with Mrs. Lola Schaefer would be a life time wish!
We have been having a compotation with our principal Mr. Dawson to win 10,000 points and you nook Aerohawk was on of the books I read to help get the challenge! So to the point, I have a few good questions floating in the back of my head for you. Yes, it’s about your story.

Dear Mrs.Matzat,
I should get to have lunch with author Lola Schaefer because I just love her book Arrowhawk. I loved how she wrote ‘blood was seeping out’ because she was being descriptive on how the blood from the hawks thigh was coming out. Arrowhawk is one of the best books I’ve ever read. I think that author Lola Schaefer did a wonderful job on this book; if she writes any more books then I want to read them. Lola Schaefer, I think you would want to meet me because you’re my favorite author and we can talk about books and maybe if you want I could give you some ideas for your next book if your writing one. Doesn’t that sound fun?! I would just love to have lunch with my favorite author Lola Schaefer. P.S. your doing a great job keep going.

Dear Mrs. Matzat,
I have heard about your contest and this really means a LOT to me. Lola Schaefer is one of the people that really inspire me. Every time I think of a new story, I think of her, and what kind of Descriptive words she would add to my stories. When I think of her, it helps me to know that I really can do my best on my stories. I also want to talk to her about how she gets her amazing ideas, and what it felt like to have to get such a great award- The Show Me.
I also REALLY want to talk to her about who inspired HER when she was growing up, and please remember this- I don’t want to meet her because she is famous- I want to meet her because she has inspired me so much.
I just love her descriptive words she uses, and when I first opened her book, Arrowhawk, I have always wanted to meet her.
Crossing my fingers,

We almost do it every spring and summer. That way our yard doesn’t look dirty and ugly. But that’s beside the point. So hopefully you choose me to be one of the contest winner’s! Thanks even if I don’t win! Later!

His name is benaiah Snyder. He works at crane at the electric place. My grandpa use to work there. My next mark twain is cornelia then it will be moon shadow.
