(3) K-3 Illustrated by Alexandra Day. A rural family and their pet menagerie take on mail service to their valley, humans and animals working together. When they notice some residents don't get mail, they contribute letters of their own. The text is minimal, the tale being told largely through Day's narrative illustrations (full-page and spot), which offer many opportunities to notice details in the clever animals' delivery service.
