Dear Tim,
Haven’t heard from you for a while. How are you? How are you enjoying your summer vacation?
I’m living with my grandparents and there’s so much to tell you. There is this huge banyan tree at home that I actually own because I am the one who spends time with it.
And I have a strong reason to actually live with it. I have a new friend on the tree. This friends is not a common thing. It’s very much true and it is a squirrel.
At first, that sweet little baby squirrel didn’t trust me. I tried giving her bread crumbs and the little creature rejected me. But slowly, it started coming and pulling the food from my hands and it ran away. But now, my dear friend trusts in me like no one. I feel so lucky to have such a sweet friend.
I will try to befriend her with you if you want to visit me. Waiting for you to write back. Take care.
Love,
Rusk

Dehra.
Dear Arun;
Hope you are enjoying your vacation there. I am doing the same here, at grandpa’s
house. I got a new friend here. Do you know who the new friend is? A little, cute squirrel
grey in colour! In the beginning he was a little resentful towards me. But now, finding that I
am not harmful, he is very friendly and familiar with me even to take food from my hands.
You know in our garden there is a magnificent banyan tree, which is older than my grandpa,
it old as the town of Dehra. I often spend my free time on the tree, and the squirrel will also
be there with me. There I have built a small platform on the halfway up the tree. I could read
from there. I had witnessed for a fight between mongoose and cobra, in that mongoose was
vanquished. A few days ago, my grandpa brought a white rat to home, which he had bought
from the bazaar for four Annas. I often take it with me to the root or platform in the tree.
Soon it made a friendship with one of the squirrels in the banyan tree. There a strange thing
happened. The squirrel started building a nest in a hole in the tree. When we investigated it,
we found three little white squirrels! My grandpa said that he hadn’t seen white squirrels
before in his life. He also explained that the white rat should be the father of white baby
squirrels.
I wanted your presence with me in this vacation. We can spend the time in the garden
and on the banyan tree. You will be happy to see the beautiful land in Dehra, and live in it.
Convey my regards to all. I hope to see you soon.
Yours lovingly,
