Again here is a composition that I didn't even know I wrote! It was back in Primary 6 when we read The Tale of Despereaux.
Mr. Cheddar Cheese
Most Very Honoured Head Mouse
Gray Street, Mousington
Dear Mr. Cheese,
I am writing in response to the announcement made on Saturday. I am a lawyer who lives in Fur Street, and I have read about Despereaux Tilling’s story in the Mousy daily.
Firstly, I would like to accent on my strong disagreement of your decision. Your verdict of punishment for Despereaux is against the law. As it is clearly stated in The Ancient Book of Law for Castle Mice, all children are free of rules and laws.
Secondly,
I would also like to report a case which happened before you were promoted to Most Very Honoured Head Mouse. Hovis Celery, Junior Threadmaster of Spool University has committed a similar crime to Despereaux’s. I, therefore, kindly request that you take this into account.
Thirdly, I agree with what you would describe as “egregious acts”, that Despereaux had done. However, he is really a nice, cheerful fellow. He is top of the class, which I know because I have talked to his teacher. His imagination leads him to the library to read books. I’m sure that you simply cannot punish a mouse for reading books to improve his grammar.
Lastly, I would like to remind you that humans are not at all dangerous. Despereaux listened to the human king play music and the teacher told me that his music grades went from an A to an A+! And (I am sure that you do not want the mouse community to hear of this) I would like to remind you of the past. You know for sure that I am talking about the time when you were a baby mouse happily frolicking in the Princess Pea’s mouse cage!
I have expressed my concern quite straight-forwardly, and I hope you will think it over and agree with me. Please reply promptly. Thank you very much for your attention.
Yours sincerely,
