7.Write a letter to a book store manager who is living in another city. Ask him/her to make available a book that you are interested in. In your letter, you should tell: – What book you are looking for? – Why you need this book? – How you plan to purchase the book?

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter to reach out for help from you regarding a
book
that I desperately need. The name of the
book
is ‘ Insomnia and Sleep’, which was written by a Japanese doctor three years ago. I have been going to countless bookshops to find it around Melbourne.
However
, I haven’t been able to get it.
Last
night, when browsing the Internet, I found a professor who said that he bought
this
book
from your store a few weeks ago, so I just contact you immediately to purchase it. As my mom has been suffering from insomnia since
last
year, I would like to help her deal with
this
health issue as soon as possible. We have tried various methods, unfortunately, they are useless. One of my friends recommended
this
book
to me as
this
book
talks about insomnia from a psychological angle, which would be useful. I would be awfully grateful if you could post
this
book
to me.
However
, if you cannot do that, I will go to your town to buy it in person. Please let me know whether
this
book
is available in your shop at the earliest opportunity. I am looking forward to your reply. Yours faithfully, Nina Guan
