A letter to Santa Claus

Dear Santa Claus,
        My name is Nastja. I'm ten years old. I live in Russia in small village under the name of Sarasa of Altay territory. I go to school and I study in the forth grade.

   There were many good things in leaving year. I have a younger brother. His name is Kostja and he has learnt to go.

   We with a family went on fishing and I have caught the first fish.  

   To me have presented a dog about which I for a long time dreamt. His name is Tobik. It very kind and ridiculous.

   I am one of the best schoolgirls at school. I have arrived in music school this year and I study in game as a piano. Still I dream to learn to knit and I hope my mum will teach me to it.        

   On New Year's Eve I want that you have come to us on a visit. And I want to wish all people on the earth that all dreams came true in new year.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
With love,

Nastja.
