Dear Aunt Pam,
I have something special to tell you.
Mom and I have become helpers
at the Animal Rescue Shelter.
The shelter is only a ten-minute walk
from our house.
At the shelter they have
many different animals.
They have dogs, cats, and rabbits.
They also have ducks and chickens.

Most of the animals
come to the shelter
because they’re lost,
or they’re not wanted anymore.
Some of the animals were found
walking around the streets.
They were hungry and frightened.

Mrs. Rosso, who runs the shelter,
is a really kind woman.
She takes care of all the animals
as if they were her own.
She grooms the dogs with a brush
and cleans out the animal pens.
She tries to take each dog
for a walk every day.
It’s very hard for Mrs. Rosso to take care
of all the animals by herself.
That’s why Mom and I wanted to help her.
