Dear Mum,
Thank you for my sausage and egg sandwich. I found it in the bag I had on the train when I was looking for my sketchpad. I made a new friend – Amie – and she was really nice! When I found the sandwich, I split it with her because the train food was awful, and I think we’d rather eat your delicious sandwich than what they served us.
When we finally got to Little Weirwold, the train station was bustling with other kids who’d also been evacuated to the countryside. Me and Amie were SO lucky to be in the same billeting group. A kind-looking woman with a bouncy collie dog came up to me and greeted me. Sadly, me and Amie parted ways.
The woman I’m staying with, Miss Honey, is super kind. I have a whole room to myself in the attic. And guess what? It’s a farm. I get to look after Sammy (the collie dog) and feed these fluffy animals called sheep. There are also these black and white animals called cows, but I can’t do anything with them yet: Miss Honey says I need to learn more about them first. The food she made me is nice – but it’s not as good as yours.
After a few days, I started going to school. I was super happy because it turns out that me and Amie go to the same school! It’s really fun with her there, and we chat about our family and draw. She even taught me how to play hopscotch and other games.
I’m having so much fun, but still wish you were here to do it all with me.
I hope you’re safe,
Lots of love,
Ella
