Dear Everybuggy,

Hi! I know, I know, you’ve heard this a seption (1024 ) times, but I LOVE your magazine! I just have something to say (all from February 2020). Ladybug, you are correct! Hockey is very rough. Just don’t punch-fight. Wear protective gear, and you’ll be fine, Muffin. The more protective gear, the better! Slug-go, George, and Tail, here are a pad so your slime won’t freeze and bodysuits so you don’t get ice burn. George and Tail, do not wear dancing outfits when you play hockey. It’s very dangerous! I hope this will make it better to play hockey. Happy skating!

Can I fly? You should see me!

Love,

Ladybug

Dear Cricket,

Even though I just started reading your magazines, I love the stories. My favorite book so far is The Fog Test by Pamela Love. It was a really good book because Kris never gave up, so he ended up seeing his family.
