# The Little Boy
Author: GitteL

A little boy wanted to know what it was like to have $1,000. His mother told him to pray to God for it. He prayed for two weeks but nothing turned up. Then he decided perhaps he should write God a letter requesting the $1,000. When the post office received the letter addressed to God, they opened it and decided to send it to President . The President was so impressed, touched and amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy $20. He thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy . 

   
  
   
The little boy was delighted with the $20 and sat down to write a thank-you letter, which read as follows; "Dear God : Thank you very much for sending me the money. I noticed that you had to send it through the government. As usual, those thieves deducted $980 for tax."
