Dear Stark Industries Mail (whoever replied to my last message),
Thank you so much for the letter back! My uncle says that asking for Mr. Stark to come to my science fair was too much, so you can tell him that he doesn’t actually have to come. If we win, we’ll be on the news, so he can see it then, but only if he wants. It would be really great if he could come, though.
Ned thought it was so cool that I got a response to my letter! He’s really excited about our project, too! I’ve only known him for four years, because I only moved here from Chicago when my parents died and I didn’t meet him right away, but I really think that we’re going to be friends forever.
Speaking of friends, I met a boy named Skip yesterday after school when I was walking home! Ned had a piano lesson, so I was all alone, but then he walked me home (because he’s a little bit older) and met Aunt May! She said it was cool that I made a new friend, because my only friend is really Ned, and that he might be in charge of babysitting me even if I don’t need a babysitter anymore sometimes if Aunt May and Uncle Ben have other things to do. I’m so excited to get to hang out with him, though!
Our science project is coming along really well! We have two large containers, both holding like dirt and wood and stuff, and one is full of the chemicals that are used to destroy the materials we don’t reuse, the other is holding some reused materials that were made into sidewalk, completely non-toxic. We then have two of the same plant being exposed to either circumstance to show the harmfulness of the chemicals on the environment. I think we even have a shoe-in for first place! I hope that the project doesn’t embarrass Mr. Stark, though.
Can you tell me a little about yourself, mysterious S.I. Mail employee? I can tell you about myself, too.
I’m ten years old , which you already knew , and I go to Middle Village School , which you also already knew . My name is Penelope Peter Parker, and I really love science! I live with my aunt and uncle because my parents died in a plane accident when they were coming to get me after their vacation because I didn’t want them to be away anymore . I really love my aunt and uncle, I’ve been with them for six years now, but I still miss my parents.
All the best with hope of continued correspondence,
P. Parker
