Dear....
Throughout the whole book, we see Leigh writing letters to Mr. Henshaw. We get everything through Leigh's point of view and we always know what he is thinking.
Your task is to write a letter to Leigh.
Your task is to write a letter to Leigh.
- Step 1: Pick a person to write as. This could be Mr. Henshaw, Leigh's mom, Leigh's dad or his friend Barry.
- Step 2: Write a short letter to Leigh as if you are whoever you picked in step 1. What would be your purpose for writing to Leigh? What would you say to Leigh?
- Step 3: Write this in letter form. How would your writing be different if you were writing as Barry versus if you were writing as Leigh's mom?
