I trust your brother is in good health. (That's a traditional Distant Lands greeting!)

I still have to comb my little brother to earn my allowance, and I usually blow it on comic books and bubble gum. My favorite comic right now is Spine-Tingling Tales of Edgar Goodman and the Unimaginable Brigade -- I couldn't believe the cliffhanger at the end of the last issue!

The other day, me and Wally went out to the spooky forest by my house to look for treasure. It was scary! We had to run away from a bunch of angry wolves, and I scraped my knee up pretty bad, but it was worth it, because we found a cool glass knife!

Another!
