Then Robin read a book. The dog looked at the book，too. Robin went fishing. They waited and waited，but there was no fish. Robin went to sleep. Suddenly Billy barked at him. Oh. There was a big fish! Robin was so happy!

Dear Jack,

    Billy is my friend and I want to be your pen friend too. I live in London, but I'm not British. I'm from Australia. Do you like China? Do you collect Chinese kites? I want to visit China next year. Do you want to go there with me? Billy has got some interesting Chinese storybooks, but he can't read them. Can you read Chinese books? And have you got a book about Australia? I can send you one. Please write to me soon and we can be pen friends.

Best,

Tom
