Letter One : From the Valley(山谷)
March 6th, 2010
Dear Flora,
How are you?
It rains a lot these days. I'm growing fast. My sisters and brothers have grown up and gone out into the world. Now they are chairs, boats, and beautiful chopsticks(筷子). I can't wait to grow up. I have a dream. When I grow up, I want to be part of a house. How about you?
Best wishes.
Yours sincerely,
Bil1y
Letter Two:From the Factory
April 12th, 2010
Dear Flora,
I have big news for you.
Some friends and I took a train and travelled a long way. Now we're in a big factory. I heard that people would make us into chopsticks. That is not my dream, but I think beautiful chopsticks are also good. My cousin David was made into chopsticks. Now he is in the USA and everyone there likes him.
Kind regards.
Yours,
Billy.
Letter Three: From the Restaurant
June 22nd, 2010
Dear Flora,
I am not beautiful chopsticks like my cousin David, but disposable chopsticks. I don't like that. Isn't it banned(禁止)to use disposable chopsticks? I can't understand. Maybe people will throw me away tomorrow. Maybe I can't write to you any more. Oh, goodbye, my dear friend!
Take good care of yourself.
Sincerely,
Billy

Dear Flora,
Can you believe it? I am part of a house now!
