Difficult to read as the rhythm was off (or unnatural, maybe). And of course the educational part is obsolete, now. But I do remember that when we sent cards to grandma in the country, we addressed them by name, RR 1, town and ZIP - no address necessary, just 'rural route #1.' A little boy writes a letter to his grandmother. He takes his letter and slips into the mailbox. The first postman takes the letter out of the box and takes it to sorted and stamped, from there the letter shipped. The boy's letter is sent to different locations before it is finally mailed to his grandmother. This a really neat book that shows how the mail is sent to several different forms of transportation. Classroom extension; have the students sort mail just like the post office, the mail can be in alphabetical order and placed into boxes. Once student can place all the envelopes the same way, while the next can write "Return to Sender" on the envelopes. no reviews | add a review
