I liked your story about Hachiko. I also liked your dog. Those pictures are very funny. We're reading Stone fox in reading groups. Your books are funny we do drafts in class. What does Hachiko mean in Japanese?" [Answer: the Chinese characters that make up Hachiko's name mean "Eight thousand publics" so it really doesn't "mean" much of anything.] "Dear Ms. Turner, Thank you for coming to visit our school.
