Stay skeptical. I'm very skeptical myself, and I thought the same thing.

Yeah, I'm not buying it. These aren't typical 3rd grade sentences. Even well read third graders.

I totally agree. They all seems to be written by the same person, just with different types of handwriting. Some of the sentences are adult-sayings. It's totally fake

It might be they collected these and typed them up, then later someone re-typed them in handwriting fonts.

I think they're from the 1950s or 60s. Look at the names. Nobody names their children Nan or Susan or Johnny any more.

They could have been dictated by the kids and written by the teacher.

There are from a book called "Children's Letters To God (I bet you're surprised by that!!). I had it as a child in the 70's. I read it so many times I still remember these letters. s-l1600-5d...83c754.jpg

At the very least, they don't seem to be currently popular names (not all but some). Not a single one with extra random vowels, or spelled backwards.

thought the same thing

Because they're all fake.

I've read many of these before, some years ago. I think they were probably real originally but have been re-presented here.

These really aren't typical 3rd grade sentences, nor the first thing a kid would think to write given that chance? Also heard the girrafe joke before. I would expect something like, "Dear God bless my family and teacher." end

Pretty good guess. They are from a book published in the 70's. It would have been nice if proper credit had of been given to the source.
