Dear Diary, We got word today that there was a boy found who had been living in the woods all his life. Can you believe that? I cannot imagine what this boy must have gone through. Did he see many wild animals? Has he ever encountered a bear? What did he eat? Where are his parents? Aren't they worried about him? I imagine he must have been awfully scared living all that time by himself. I wonder if he would be my friend? Maybe he would share with me all of the adventures he has been on. I wonder if I could live in the woods. I probably wouldn't last very long. I'd be too frightened. I just know my parents would miss me terribly. Don't tell my sister and brother this, but I know I'm the favorite. Haha.

Back to the boy that was found. We heard that he looks to be around 12, just 1 year older than me. I wonder what he looks like? I wonder what must he be thinking? Surely living by himself for so long has made him very mature, I mean, he had to take care of himself and protect himself all that time. He must be very smart.

Well that is all for now. I'll fill you in more tomorrow with more information about the boy as Pa tells me more. Nighty Night!
