I remember writing a letter to my parents (around age 8 or so) that was entirely in Fraktur. I had a wide-edged writing tool that I had been using for rudimentary calligraphy, when they bought a new dictionary that had Fraktur in the front of it. I would have used the Arabic listed there, but I figured they wouldn't be able to read it.
