Dear Jack,
Thanks for sending me the snow globe of the monster. I love it. In fact I think it's probably my favorite. I'v been collecting snow globes for seven years, and now I have 226 of them. My mom says I have to stop, because we've run out of room to store them. They're all around our apartment. I even store them in boxes under my bed. The first one I ever got was a birthday cake snow globe on my seventh birthday. I particularly love globes with animals. I have a big one with bears in it and another one with penguins. If you know anyone else who collects them, please tell me. I'd like to start a snow globe collectors' club. By the way, What's your hobby?
Love,
Ellen
