Dear Principal Quigley,
Why can't I bring my pet tarantula to school again? People can bring dogs, cats, hamsters, and bunnies to school! It's not fair! My tarantula doesn't bite. Besides, he can't get out of his cage uless someone lets him out. And I promise I won't do that anymore! Please let me bring Harry, my tarantula to school!
Sincerely,
Jada
