LETTERS
TO LULU
hi Lulu
in the pony pal books there is a map of Wiggins. Is it
the real map?
you are my favourite pony pal. I think you and Snow White
make a great team.
I have been to Canada and i went horseriding on a horse
called Sadi she is a chestnut like Lighting.
we had to look out for bears!

Dear
Kayla
Thanks
for writing. Yes, the map of Wiggins in the books is a
kind of simple map of our town. There are lots of houses
and places that you can't see on that map. Mrs. Crandal
is working on one that is a lot more detailed that she
will use in the game.
Snow
White is very special. The more I ride her the better
she gets at knowing what I want. Sometimes it seems like
I just have to think about where I want to go and she
is already headed that way. A good pony can do that. They
are so smart about learning your cues.
Riding
Sadi sounds fun. There aren't many bears here in Wiggins,
maybe up on Mt. Morris in the park there might be some
but we don't see them very often. If you see one they
are very dangerous and you have to get away from them.
Are
there bears where you live in New Zealand?
Your
Pony Pal,

Hey
lulu,
how's your dad?
How's woolie?
Can you give Snow white a kiss please?
Samantha in Australia
Dear
Samantha
My dad
is great. He made it back to Africa and we email each
other all the time. He even emailed me a picture of where
he is staying now and it is really pretty.
Woolie
is good. He wanted to go with Pam when we all went on
a picnic with Jack and Jill and Ms. Wiggins.
Pam
had to shut him into Lightning's stall and we heard him
barking as we rode off. It was funny to hear it get softer
as we rode off...
Woof...woof...woof...woof..
Snow
White got a kiss from you the same day I got your letter.
I gave
it to her right behind her ear!
Your Pony Pal,
Dear
Lulu,
Hope your dad makes it back safe and sound. Please tell
your dad that I said good luck with trying to find a house
closer to you and your grandmother. Who knows? Maybe he'll
be able to build a house right next door to your grandmother
and maybe he'll find a job in Wiggins. You never know
right? Please answer my questions. Please give Shadow
and Pam's dog a hug for me. Please respond PDQ the second
after you get this E-Mail. Sincerely, Cayce
Dear
Cayce,
My dad made it back fine and now we are writing emails
every day. He said he would send one every week but
every time I write him he writes back. I'm glad, I
miss him a lot. My grandma says if dad moves back
here she will retire from her beauty salon and move
to Florida.
I don't think so! She likes making little old ladies
look pretty and all her friends would be really mad.
Shadow is good and I will hug her for you. Woolie
is a pain and kept trying to follow Pam to our picnic.
We had to lock him up in Lightning's stall before
we left. Thanks for writing.

Dear
Lulu,
Hi! Sarah here. If you know much about my pony, Samson,
you'll know that he's very unique! When I first saw
him, I noticed that the blaze on his head is crooked
when it gets to his nose! I've made some other discoveries
as time goes on mainly when grooming him... such as
that there's a black spot on his back inside thigh.
Samson has no other black on him. But here's a funny
one: He's an escape artist! When ever I tie him up with
a quick release knot, he messes around with his mouth
until he unties the knot! That's why I may start using
cross ties. Well, nice talking to you! Give Snow White
a kiss on the nose for me! -Sarah
Dear
Sarah
You and Samson are lucky to have each other. How is your
training coming? Did you find a trainer to help you with
riding him? Is your mom feeling better?
Its funny how you get to know a pony really well when
you groom them. Rubbing them all over with a curry and
a brush, then cleaning out their hooves and brushing their
mane, they like you for giving them skritches. My favorite
part is when you scratch an itchy spot and they make that
face. You know, the one where they put out their lip.
If he
likes to untie knots, cross ties sound like a good idea.
I promise to kiss Snow White for you.
