It is very rare that you meet someone who will
change your life for the better. This
presentation honors someone who has done just
that and has made my life much more
fulfilling my best friend Leslie.

Five words that describe Leslie are
imaginative
kind
courageous
outgoing

• Leslie taught me many lessons, such as
• If you are always afraid you will never enjoy
  life.
• Dont worry what others think about you.
• Take time to understand people before you judge
  them.

If I could give Leslie three gifts I would give
her
1. A crown because she will always be a queen.
2. A television set so she will not be
embarrassed in school.
3. A pair of running shoes because she is the
fastest runner in the fifth grade.

My favorite memory of Leslie was the look on
her face when I gave her Prince Terrien. She
seemed so happy. It made me feel good to know
that I got her a present that was worthy of her.
7
If I could spend one more day with Leslie it
would be a magical day. We would wake up early
so that we can do a lot. In the morning I would
take her to Washington to see some of the
beautiful museums that I saw. We would walk
around and discuss all of the displays. I would
save up enough money so we can eat lunch at the
museum. After our trip to Washington we would go
to Terabithia with Prince Terrien and fight off
all of the enemies. I will show Leslie how brave
I can be. When we got back we would sit in front
of the television drinking hot chocolate.
