Dear Field Natural History Museum:

 

 

I found a bone in my backyard. I think it may be a dinosaur bone! Or that chicken bone I threw out the door like 8 weeks ago. What do dinosaur bones look like? Do they look like chicken bones? Because if so, I believe this may just be a dinosaur bone.

 

If this is in fact an ancient relic of the monsters of the past, I would like to donate it to your museum because I went to your museum once and saw a really cool exhibit on the history of the letter M and I was both enticed and enchanted. (but not mystified) I have gone to other museums featuring M history but they were lacking in presentation. Yours was phenomenal! I learned so much about M. Did you know that M is the letter three before P but five after H? It’s amazing.

 

Let me know what dinosaur bones look like and I’ll let you know if this is one, so I can send it to you. Do you still sell $3 nail lacquer?

 

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Kevin Dickinson
