Hi!
It's me, Irene, writing again.
I've just been looking at all the mail You've received and I got an idea.
I don't know if You're putting out all the letters You get, but maybe You can do me a favour and put this letter out? So, if there is anyone out there who reads this at Alex's page I hope You can help me find good pages for kids at the Net. I study Media production at the University of Kalmar in Sweden and I'll be writing my exam paper on the subject Kids and Internet and I would like some comments, tips for pages and I also wants to know if there is anyone using the Net in education in preschool and elementary school.
Thanks to all of You and thanks Alex, once more, for Your lovely stories!

I liked your story before about Max and his mother and now I like your story about Joey and Max. Thank you for writing it. How about a story about Max helping a racoon (if you have racoons in Australia) climb his tree?
See ya Alex,

It's a great idea to plant those trees. Gabe, Celeste and I planted 25 trees last month. They were Port orford Cedar and Giant Redwoods. All the students at Bridgeville school planted trees last week. Keep up the good work.
