Title:STRIDER
Author:Beverly Cleary

Dear Ms. Johns;

I can connect with Leigh because his dad does not live with him and his parents are divorsed. He spends time with his dad by going to work with him and calling him.I spend time with my dad by spending time with him after school and sometimes on the weekends.Strider is one of Leigh's best friend. But he's not a person he's a dog.That reminds me of Charlie my dog. He was like a best friend to me;he was fun and entertaining like Leigh's dog Strider. I can predict that Leigh will not spend a lot of time with him because he lots his job. His truck broke down and he had to deliver tomatoes. I think that Leigh's father is going to be spending time looking for a job.
