Love from Your Friend, Hannah by Mindy Warshaw Skolsky

He was a grandfather-Heidi's grandfather.

But you know what boy I liked the best? He wasn't a boy anymore. Even though Heidi was a girl, you said there was a boy in it too. I read that one that you said you like so much. Guess what I read for the second book the teacher said I had to read? Don't laugh. If I stopped reading Heidi in between the other books, I'd be able to read twice as many books, but the thing is I like reading Heidi. I read Heidi, which I love, then I read another book, then I read Heidi again. My favorite thing in the world to do is read a book. I loved Hannah so very, very much!!! And I ended up just LOVING Edward!!!!

The novel is composed of her letters to other people, and the letters she receives from other people. So who does Hannah decide to write? Well, her grandma, her aunt Becky, her best friend Aggie, and the President of the United States-Franklin D. My teacher made me put my name on that piece of paper. Here is the disastrous reply from Edward: Surely she'll be able to find someone who wants to be friends. Since her first letter to him is a total disaster, she decides to focus her energy on writing letters to other people.

She's part of her classroom's pen pal program, but, she has DRAWN THE NAME OF A BOY! And since the teacher saw her draw his name, she can't put that piece of paper back to draw another name-no matter how much she wants to. What should you know about Hannah? Well, she's a young girl who is missing her best friend, Aggie, who moved away. Hannah Diamond is the heroine of Mindy Warshaw Skolsky's Love From Your Friend, Hannah, a historical novel set in Grand View, New York in the 1930s. I've never done this before and I don't know exactly what to say. I got your name and address from a piece of paper I picked out of a box that says Pen Pals on a corner of my teacher's desk.
