Emily Ann misses someone so much that she wraps herself up, jumps in a box, and mails herself across the country. The cheerfully busy illustrations, packed with small details, show Emily's preparations, then her adventures through the U.S. Mail, but never overpower the simple, lyrical text. Children who miss a loved one will relate to Emily's determination to be reunited.
