• "Dear Rotary Club: I really like the dictionaries. At first when my teacher told us that your club's name was Rotary I thought you were rodeo people. And I thought you rode bucking broncos and bulls. I got really excited but when I heard that you weren't rodeo people I was still excited. Thanks, Jessica S."

• "Dear Rotary: Thank you for the dictionary. We are already using them. We play a dictionary game with them. We like them a lot. But it doesn't have the word Sincerly!? But, other wise, it helps a lot. Thank you soooo much! Sincerly, Melissa."

• "Dear Rotary Club: Thank you for the dictionary. I like it. It is realy cool. When I am very old and about to die, I will give it to my daughter and it will keep going on. The dictionaries are big and heavy. I will use it a lot. From, Enedina."

• "Dear Rotary: My name is Michelle. I am a 3rd grade student at Mistletoe school. I love the Dictionary you gave me. Now I know what heritage means...it means: something handed down to later generations." Sincerely, Michelle."

• "Dear Mr. P. and Mr. C: Hi! My name is Bernardo L. Thank you for the dictionary. It is beautifo and nice. Thank for the beautifo pictures in the dictionary. This is my first dictionary I get. This is the first dictionary my family ever saw. This is the best dictionary I have had in my life! Thanks you very much. Your friend, Bernardo."

• "Dear Rotary: Thank you for the dictionary. I love it. I'm going to get so smart from this! I'm so happy I got a dictionary of my own. From grace."

• "Dear Rotary Club: Thank you for the great dictionary. I will use it tonight for my homework. I know I will find some strange words in this book. Every time I use this book I will think of the club. Thanks, Sarah."

• "Dear Rotary Club Members: Thank you for my new dictionary. I like it a lot because its pictures are very colorful. Me and my mom play games with the dictionary every night. I learned lots of new words. I also learned how to find words better. I use it a lot. Thank you, Thomas."

• "Dear Rotary: I enjoyed the dictionary a lot and I learned almost a lot of words. I know I will get better every time. You've gave me the right thing I need the most for being smart and better. I bet every third grade will also be better and smarter. I feel very very very proud of my self. Sincerely, David U."

And, from a possible future Rotarian...

• "Dear Rotary Club members: Thank you for giving all the 3rd grade classes dictionary's. That was a really nice thing to do. One day I would like to do something like that. Your friend, Crystal S."
