Amanda, a child in California, USA, noticed a new boy at school sitting alone at lunch. She spoke to him and realised he didn't speak much English. Amanda then used google translate to write a note to communicate.
The letter read; "Would you like to sit with me today? Look for me and I will show you where I sit. We can colour or tell scary stories.Thank you for your time, Amanda".
Amanda got to know the boy, whose name is Rafael. Rafael is from Mexcio and speaks Spanish and a little English. Rafael and Amanda have now become friends and at Halloween went trick or treating together.
