Dear Thomas Rockwell,

 My name is Madi Cina. I love your book, How To Eat Fried Worms. I read it to my brother. He went around telling people that I eat worms. Then he started eating worms. I just want to let you know worms are disgusting.

What changed my life was that I looked at people differently. Now I give people a chance. A girl was mean, but I learned to live with it. We became best friends. My favorite part in the book was the end. I like how you think when you wrote How To Eat Fried Worms and How To Fight a Girl. That is my story. 

Please pick me for one of the fifty-dollar winners!

Sincerely,

Madi Cina
