Dear Boomer,
This year, my resolution is to work toward my goals and trudge on even if it’s the end of the world and all hope is lost. What’s your resolution?
KIT, H.C.
Dear H.C.,
Do you know somethin’ that I don’t? I didn’t know the stock market was doing that badly. Or are the Jonas Brothers breaking up? Seriously, I made a resolution to not fall behind on my homework and to pay better attention in class!
Here’s to a great 2010,
Boomer Bear
Dear Boomer,
I heard about the earthquake in Haiti and would like to help. What should a kid my age do to help the kids there?
Want2help, B.C
Dear B.C.,
Now’s the perfect time for kids and parents to step up! Even though the 7.0-magnitude earthquake lasted only a minute,
it killed more than 150,000 people and left millions in desperate need of help. Didja tune in to the “Hope for Haiti Now”
telethon? Here are
some sites to visit
to see how you can help:
UnicefUSA.org
ClintonBushHaitiFund.org
WorldCare.org
RedCross.org
World Care—based here at 3538 E. Ellington Place, Tucson, AZ 85713— accepts cash, checks or donated items. You also can drop off items at any Rural/Metro Fire Station or Sun Flower Farmers Market. If you want to help kids, you can collect kids clothing, toothpaste and toothbrushes, wash cloths, baby shampoos, bar soap, diapers, infant formula, powdered milk, blankets and first aid stuff. Get your school involved!
Way to help! Boomer Bear
Dear Boomer,
I have a brother named J. He doesn't like to listen to anyone. What can I do?
Yours truly, N.A.
¡Hola N.A.!
While you want the best for your bro, it's not really up to you to fix J’s problem. He’ll probably have to learn the hard way why it’s important to listen to those around you. Have patience!
Your buddy, Boomer Bear
Dear Boomer,
I have a cousin who gets everything she wants and always gets straight A+’s. I'm not THAT great, but still I try. My parents always are comparing me to my cousin, and I hate that. I wish they wouldn’t do that.
Thanks, H.M.
Dear H.M.,
You ARE that great, but I wouldn't worry about competing with yer cuz. You and your cousin are two very special and unique kids. Keep challenging yourself and writing those great news stories for Bear Essential News!
See ya soon,
Boomer Bear

Hopefully, your school is doing something to help the people
of Haiti.

Dear Boomer Bear,
What was the most disgusting food you ever ate?
Your friend, C.E.
Hey, C.E.!
There's a traditional Chinese brunch called dim sum, where servers roll carts to your table and you pick baskets of yummy steamed dumplings and stuff. A popular dim sum dish is chicken feet! I don't care for 'em—they get stuck in my teeth.
Try dim sum!

Hello, Boomer!
I’m a new young reporter for your newspaper, and I’m really excited—
I love your newspaper! I have tons of story ideas for your paper, but I’m afraid that something might go wrong!
I might mess up.
Young Reporter C.R.
Dear C.R.,
You worry too much! You don’t need to be the best writer in the world to write for me! Editors make sure that all the stories our Young Reporters hand in are brought up to the same quality before they’re printed in Bear Essential News! Just pick a news story that you want to cover, track down the 5W’s and H for the story and write them up in five or six short paragraphs.
Remember to have fun,
Boomer Bear
