She was 7 when she wrote this:

My Dad is great, he plays with me,

When theres a bird, then he will see,

He makes a lot of money, so one day,

We'll buy a cool car and have holidays,

When I'm sick he will be the first to see,

He'll take me to the doc' and pay the fee,

I love my Dad, he is the best,

He works very hard, he deserves a rest.

I love you Dad : Anna

 

 

One year later:

The Seals

Across the deep blue sea lies a body

in a puddle of red blood.

It has a black bullet stuck in it's heard.

Around it there are two more black seals.

They have sad faces on them.

There are many other seals on the island

next to them that have the same

feelings as they have. Sad ! Sad !

They will never forget what happened

across the deep blue sea.
