Remember the boy who was picked up by the ambulance (急救車) in Syria? Can you please go to get him and bring him to our home?

Park in the driveway or on the street and we will be waiting for you guys with flags, flowers, and balloons. We will give him a family and he will be our brother. Catherine, my little sister, will be collecting butterflies and fireflies for him.

In my school, I have a friend from Syria, Omar, and I will introduce him to Omar. We can all play together. We can invite him to birthday parties and he will teach us another language. We can teach him English too, just like my friend Aoto from Japan.

Please tell him that his brother will be Alex who is a very kind boy, just like him. Since he won’t bring toys and doesn’t have toys, Catherine will share her big blue stripy white bunny (a word for a rabbit, used especially by or to children). And I will share my bike and I will teach him how to ride it. I will teach him additions and subtractions (加減法) in math. And he can try on Catherine’s favourite watch, which she doesn’t let anyone touch.

Thank you very much! I can’t wait for you to come!
