Many favorite fairy tale characters are planning a party and they are busily sending letters to each other. Letters are often considered a lost art now, but this book shows what letter writing is like to younger children. The most fun, however, comes from the illustrations that enhance the information provided in each letter.

The book is most likely too complicated for 3 and under, but older children should enjoy the interaction of the characters and the story development. The book gets better with its second and third reads. What child doesn't want to hear it read more than once anyway?

This book is very clever. My kids create their own letters and situtations and the book sparks their imaginations.

This is one of our favorite bedtime books.

Another Favorite is
Extra! Extra!/ Extra! Extra!

happy endings in this series, great examples of mapping for children as well as letter writing features/ formalities

I think this book is great to talk to children about several things. I did a lesson about writing letters with third graders in order to teach them to write letters. They had a great time with this book and very soon they were reading it to each other making the different intonations in the voices (wolf, goldilocks, grandma, and so on) just as I made them. My son who is a fifth grader read this book and also loved it. It is very funny for kids and adults alike. The kids said they would definitely start to write letters with this book and they did start.
Loved it!!!!

I read this book to a group of 3rd graders. It held most of their attention, but not all of it.
