First Letter from Francis Karanja!

The first letters from my December correspondent children seem to be coming in now. I'm still waiting on 3 first letters from this group of kids, but today I got one from my boy, Francis Karanja in Kenya.

Karanja is 13 years old and he wrote this letter in English, completely on his own. Go man, go!

He drew this picture. I wonder if that's a picture of his school, or maybe his project. I'll have to ask him.

  1. That is so neat that Karanja wrote in English!!! I love how much he shared in his letter! It's so neat to learn all about each kid! And what a great drawing. I enjoyed reading this all! I especially like that one of his favorite subjects is math...it's mine too!
