Talk about a great book for kids...wow! I wish this would have been made when I was a kid 30 years ago. I would have enjoyed writing more often with all the fun ideas they have in this book!

I would say it's geared to kids between the ages of 7 to 14. It includes a few sheets of colorful paper and matching envelopes, along with stickers.

Every page is filled with colorful illustrations, hints and tips for writing simple notes, letters & thank you's. There are decorating ideas, how-to info on making a pop-up card, addressing an envelope, stamp & postmark info, and abbreviations for streets & states too.

Did you know that you could enclose a stamped letter to someone in an envelope, send it to the postmaster of a town anywhere in the U.S. and ask them to postmark it and send it on? This book tells you how to do that!

Some of the other helpful chapters include how to ask for help (save a historic tree), get information, say 'I'm sorry', write to the President, and complain to a company (my game was missing a part).

This book would make a fantastic gift for a child recovering in the hospital, a birthday gift, or for use by home schoolers!
