When Liam writes to his mailbox asking for mail, the mailbox delivers a fire-breathing dragon and much more. Cheerful, digitally assembled pencil and watercolor illustrations depict the "oodles and oodles" of creatures and objects that spew forth. Clanton's clever visual incorporation of all things mail-related--including letters, envelopes, and postmarks--bolsters a simple text and heightens the story's humor and appeal.
