To the Editor:
Yesterday, my class had to stay late after school. My teacher said it was because a bear was in my neighborhood. After they let us go home, my dad wouldn’t let me play outside because a bear was in my neighborhood. Last night they caught the bear down my street, but I never saw the bear. I don’t think there was a bear in my neighborhood, I think it was something else.

Yay Chris wins the short story contest.
Nice. I knew that’s what really happened…
This made me smile! Because all of the teachers at my school were freaking out when it happened. And come to find out, The bear was two towns over. But I guess they are just paranoid people, Worrying about the welfare of the kids and what not.
