Dear Aunt,

Dear Aunt,

                I have some bad news for you. Our plane crashed and we are stranded on an island with no adults. I have made some new friends, Jack, Ralph, and Simon. Jack is the oldest boy on the island. He also is very bossy and tries to be the leader of the group. No one really likes him. He is also very wild and wants no one to be over him and he thinks he makes all of the rules and we must follow him. Ralph is one of the nicer boys. He is the first on I met on the island. He is very calm and smart. He is trying to get everyone in a group and try and figure out how to be rescued in a civilized manner. Simon is very quiet and doesn’t really talk that much. He just goes along with what everyone is saying and tries to be friends with everyone and doesn’t want to start fights. Ralph also found a conch; he used this to get everyone to come to a certain place when we hear the sound. This is very helpful because we know where to go if we are lost. I have also noticed there is a beast in men. It scares me to death knowing that some of us can’t control the anger in each of us. I hope that we can all contain the beast within. We also started fires. We are using these fires to keep us warm, and maybe other people will see the smoke or flames and come rescue us. We are hoping that someone will come rescue us soon so we can all get back to our normal life.

                With love, Piggy
