Hi.
     I need something on drugs, bullies and guns.  I need something on drugs because the kids sneak drugs to school and keep bugging me.  I am only 7.  I need something on bullies and guns because I'm moving to a tough place.  I forget the name.

Dear McGruff,
     I want a free copy of your comic book because in my neighborhood we have gangs and sometimes I might just get involved with the gangs.  And I might get in trouble walking and seeing drugs somewhere.  So see ya!

                                                              Sincerely,
                                                              Scott

Dear Scruff McGruff,
     I am ordering this because I need to learn how to get out of trouble.  Like to get out of a bully's grip and I have tons of bullies.  And I know about drugs.  They are very bad for your body.  I am 8 years old and I really like you, and I know a lot of things that are bad for us but there are some things I don't know.
